I’ve been to this location a handful of times now and it is always a great massage! This most recent visit I had Robyn as my masseuse and she really listed to what I wanted and did an amazing job!

Amazing massage. Robyn was phenomenal and made me feel very comfortable both physically and mentally. Excited to rebook!

Robyn was amazing! She really worked through tension knots on my back and shoulders and helped me to relax. Will be requesting her or Allaceea any time I book!

I was ready to cancel my membership at The Now South Loop because I just couldn’t seem to find the right fit—until I had a session with Makayla. She was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, she took the time to sit down with me to discuss my concerns and the areas I wanted to focus on, especially given my broken arm, which has made me anxious about massages in the past. Makayla's professionalism, gentle tone, and genuine kindness immediately put me at ease. She listened carefully to my concerns, and her attention to detail made all the difference. The pressure was absolutely perfect, and she was incredibly mindful to avoid rolling over my bones, something I had an issue with in a previous session. I felt completely safe and cared for in her hands. This was, without a doubt, the best massage I’ve had at this location—and the second best massage of my entire life! For the first time, I was able to fully relax and enjoy the session without any discomfort or anxiety. Makayla’s skill and attentiveness were exceptional, and I truly believe I’ve found the right person to work with moving forward. I’m so happy I decided to give The Now another chance. Makayla is a gem, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, skilled, and professional massage therapist. Thank you, Makayla, for an incredible experience!

Best massage since moving to Chicago. Robyn was amazing at hitting not just the knots but finding the muscles that were really causing the issues. Joined as a member right after so I can keep my tension away while in law school! Facilities are clean, quiet and tranquil!

First time here and Robin was great! First prenatal massage I’ve ever had and she was very knowledgeable and listened to my areas of concern. I left feeling super relaxed and pain free!

Best massage I’ve had so far! Robyn was an excellent therapist. Her technique and pressure were on point. The atmosphere was so peaceful and relaxing. Will definitely go back there!

Front desk needs serious training to handle customers. They don’t seem happy to work there unfortunately.

Front desk was courteous. I enjoyed my Swedish massage by Robyn. I would come back!

I had the BEST massage with Robyn last week. I came in because I could feel my trap knotting up and she fully worked it out in 50 minutes. Last time it had felt similar I was in pain for almost two full weeks; her massage meant I woke up the next day feeling pretty much back to normal, I couldn’t believe it! Would strongly recommend and was sure to book with her again.

I have been coming here for a long time. The therapists are consistently show superb technique. The front desk staff are pleasant and helpful without fail. The space is relaxing. Great job, guys!

I’ve been seeing Margarita for months now and she is AMAZING — I can’t recommend enough! I look forward to our monthly sessions and have truly enjoyed this small luxury in my monthly routine. I have a membership and it has been a great investment for my mind and body.

Robin was amazing, walked in with so much back pain. Feel like a new man after definitely recommend NOW Massage and specifically Robin.
Jan 05, 2025
Robyn was great at listening to my needs & was able to work out the tension I had that I slept great that night & my headaches went away!

Robyn was my masseuse and she was AMAZING! Her care to my needs to great energy, was great! I will definitely be back soon.

Someone here stole my $400 gold Tiffany chain after it was removed from my body during a massage. I called and they said they would get in touch with the masseuse to see if they knew what was going on or where my necklace was. They called back and said they could not get in touch with her. I then went up there To see if I can get answers in person and they told me they would look for the necklace after someone session was done and give me a call back. I never got a call so I filed a police report and I’m waiting to work it out with the police. I cannot recommend this place.

The women at the front desk were absolutely amazing! They anticipated my needs, exhibited the best customer service, and made sure they thoroughly explained all of the services. Lasandra was an awesome therapist that was extremely knowledgeable and thorough. She had great customer service as well! You can tell she cares about her clients and improving their quality of life! Hats off ladies you all rock!!!!!!

Amazing 80min session with Shaiyla and it felt like the best massage I ever had. My tension, the pressure, and the focus areas just aligned and it just aligned in all the best ways. Been going to the Now for over a year and it’s just always getting better. Recommend people to try it out at least once even if you won’t do the subscription!

I had a full body massage by Robyn and it was absolutely magical. The amount of pressure on my neck and shoulders was perfect since I hold a lot of tension there. But at the end she massaged my scalp and the nape of my neck…omg, it released tension on an entirely new level. I felt a level of relaxation I hadn’t felt in decades. I definitely recommend Robyn and I hope to be back soon!

I had the most amazing prenatal massage experience with Robyn! She was so attentive to my needs, cared about what I wanted to get out of the massage, and made me feel so comfortable. I left truly feeling so refreshed and received much relief from my pregnancy back pain.

I l o v e d my massage with Robyn!! I asked her to get into all my knots and tight muscles and she dug all of the tension out. I also love her mindset about the body being clay. Great prices and great services. 5/5 stars

After running the Chicago Marathon I was extremely sore and needed to get my muscles loosened up before heading home. Robyn did a fantastic job. I couldn’t believe how much better I felt after. Highly recommend this place!

Robyn did a great job. The deep tissue felt amazing; she was able to work through a lot of knots and tension without causing any pain or applying too much pressure. I felt very relaxed during the massage and appreciated her reminders to be mindful of my breathing throughout the experience.

Robyn made me feel like I was on another planet, what a relaxing massage! She was so nice and told me how to do stretches for my back too.

Great service and very relaxing!

I have been going to The NOW Massage for awhile but this is my first time going for a pre-natal and the South Loop Location. I had the pleasure of getting my massage from Robyn who was super informative regarding the benefits of a prenatal massage and very knowledgeable. I specified my needs (firmness level specifically) and she listened and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process - so comfortable I ended up falling asleep for a bit of it! I will definitely be going back to this location and hopefully continue seeing Robyn! If you're thinking about trying, give it a go!

Robyn is the best massage therapist ever! She has a magic touch. I left feeling very relaxed and rejuvenated.
Nov 05, 2024
Such a great experience had an amazing massage from beginning to end margarita definitely deserve a raise. I love the detail from the breathe work to the lemon cucumber water! The ambiance was amazing .
Nov 05, 2024
This was a wonderful massage. For my first massage, Robyn kept me at ease. I definitely felt more relaxed.

UPDATE: I continued to see Robyn once or twice a month all the way up until the week I moved out of state a couple months ago. She is really really good. She has in depth knowledge and understanding of the body and how to assist healing. Plus she enjoys what she does. That makes a difference. I can’t recommend her enough and am so bummed to have moved so far away!!! Robyn was absolutely fantastic today. She listened to what I said was sore and uncomfortable and approached each area perfectly. The muscles between my back ribs get sticky and painful. She methodically and slowly attended to each muscle and I’ve never had a therapist take their time like that on my ribs. I haven’t fallen asleep during a massage in maybe 15 years. I was drooling and nodding in and out and I loved it. Highly recommend Robyn. I’ll be seeing her again for sure

It had been a few years since I had a massage and thankfully my first experience back was with Robyn. She is popular and I totally understand why, she heard my needs on where to focus, the pressure to do and comfort I need to be totally relaxed. I left feeling great and ended up signing up for the membership so that I can make this a monthly ritual. Thank you to Ashante at the front desk walking me through all the details! Looking forward to my next visit!

Loved it. Great massage and atmosphere

Robyn is a Master of her craft. Highly intentional and intuitive therapist. Great Experience, book her NOW!
Oct 05, 2024
Robyn was absolutely amazing! I unfortunately showed up late to my appointment and she stayed past her shift to service me. She allowed me the FULL massage timeframe. I am grateful for this as I traveled almost 2 hours to my appointment. The massage was honestly one of the best I have had, and that says a-lot because I indulge in massages very often. She took her time placing emphasis on my focus areas, making sure I was comfortable throughout the entire experience!! Robyn surpassed my expectations. Thank you Robyn and The NOW.

Shayla at The Now did a really nice job with my massage. She put me to sleep!
Oct 05, 2024
The best, I really don’t wanna tell you guys this because when I can’t get an appointment it’s because of my reviews, but it’s the best massage ever
