Ready, Set, Summer! After a quick visit to the best Chicago spa

Summer doesn’t officially start until June 21, but we all know that the long Memorial Day Weekend officially marks the unofficial start of summer.  The days are getting longer, backyard barbecues are being rolled out and kids are counting down the last days of the school year.

If you haven’t already done so, you can pack the bulky sweaters and coats away now. It’s time to pull out the shorts, strappy sandals, sundresses and swimsuits.

There might be just one little problem, right?  The first time you pull on a pair of shorts, slip into a sunny little dress or strap on a pair of those sandals, you might be reminded of just how long the winter was here in Chicago. If that doesn’t do it, the first time you put on your swimsuit probably will.  It doesn’t matter if it’s a bikini or one of the cute new one-piece suits, you’re bound to realize that there are a few things you should probably do to prepare for your favorite summer looks.

The simple fact is that summer means we’ll all be showing more skin – whether you want to spend the long Memorial Day Weekend in a T-shirt and shorts or a strapless dress. Here at Spa Space, the best day spa in Chicago, we understand.

If you want to put your best foot forward for summer, a visit to Chicago’s Spa Space is definitely in order. Any one of the delicious options on our pedicure menu will help undo the damage a winter in boots may have caused.  Here are just a few of the most popular 50-minute pedicures at our spa in Chicago’s West Loop:

  • Space Signature Peppermint Pedicure
    Get ready for 50 minutes of bliss that starts with a softening foot soak, followed by a minty-sugar foot scrub to remove dead skin. After that, we’ll hydrate your feet with an invigorating foot cream.
  • Sports Pedicure
    This is a good choice if you’ve been extra hard on your feet over the winter, even if you’re not an athlete! It includes a softening foot soak, heavy-duty citrus scrub and clay mask for hydration and renewal.
  • Vanilla-Almond Pedicure – super-hydrating!
    If the winter months have left your poor feet feeling dry, rough and itchy skin, this super hydrating pedicure is for you. It draws on the naturally rich qualities of honey, almond and vanilla to delight your senses while exfoliating and softening your feet and it includes a fabulously hydrating foot mask.

 

And, of course, all of our pedicures include choice of polish or buff. And, if you’d like to raise a toast to summer, feel free to bring a bottle of wine! We just happen to have glassware on hand. (We weren’t named the best day spa in Chicago for nothing, you know!)

If you’re hoping to stretch out in the sun over the holiday weekend, you’ll be happy to know that we also offer a complete menu of waxing services – and we never double dip a stick!  (As we were just saying, you don’t get to be the best spa in Chicago without making that extra effort.)

To get a jump start on your healthy summer glow, you may also want to schedule an appointment for one of the amazing body treatments offered at our day spa in Chicago’s bustling downtown district. One of the top choices among our Chicago spa’s discerning clientele is:

  • Green Tea & Ginger Detoxifying Seaweed Body Wrap
    Did you know that seaweed can stimulate a sluggish metabolism while detoxifying and reducing the appearance of cellulite? Aren’t you glad we did?! (Yeah, this is exactly the kind of thing that helps propel you to the pinnacle of the best spas in Chicago.) The treatment starts with a full-body scrub so your skin will be ready to drink in all the rich nutrients. Then the seaweed is applied and the body is wrapped so you get the ultimate benefits from the detox process. The final step involves our “moisture surge” lotion. If you opt for the 60-minute treatment, you will have it applied. If you go for 90-minute version of this treatment, it will be massaged into your skin for 30 memorable minutes.

There was a time when getting a massage was seen as a pleasant indulgence, but with a growing body of research clearly demonstrating its health benefits, massage therapy is now considered to be an effective treatment for the relief of stress, pain and muscle tension.

“Brush aside any thoughts that massage is only a feel-good way to indulge or pamper yourself,” the experts at the Mayo Clinic say. “To the contrary, massage can be a powerful tool to help you take charge of your health and well-being, whether you have a specific health condition or are just looking for another stress reliever.”

A single massage at Spa Space – recognized as one of the top massage spas in Chicago – can positively impact your health and well-being. In addition to relieving stress and easing tension stored in your muscles, the hands-on nature of massage at the best day spa in Chicago can produce feelings of caring, comfort and connection, according to the Mayo Clinic.

When you schedule a massage on a regular basis, you will notice that the benefits are multiplied.

For those who are committed to optimum health

Happy St. Patrick's Day from the Best Spa in Chicago

Happy St. Patrick’s Day from the Best Spa in Chicago!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day from the Best Spa in Chicago!

St. Patrick’s Day in Chicago is a fun, festive tradition. From the parades to the greening of the Chicago River, this town knows how to celebrate.  People come from far and wide to be part of our celebration.

But, as Smithosonian.org reminds us, “St. Patrick’s Day hasn’t always been about beer, shamrocks and wearing green.” In fact, they say, “St. Patrick’s Day was a dry holiday in Ireland.” It was a Catholic feast day celebrating Ireland’s patron saint. Irish pubs didn’t open on St. Patrick’s Day until 1970.

On this side of the Atlantic, it was a different story entirely. “Drinking was much more of a fixture in American celebrations of the holiday, starting as early as the 18th century,” the experts at Smithsonian.org tell us. “In the early 1900s, drinking green beer instead of the normal amber stuff started becoming a part of the festivities in the United States–but the term might’ve caused some confusion at first. In the late 1800s, ‘green beer’ was a term for a beverage that hadn’t fully finished the fermentation process, which gave it a bad taste and caused stomach upset.”

Drinking isn’t high on the agenda for everyone who will be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in Chicago this year, but wearing green certainly is! Have you ever wondered why green is the color we use to celebrate St. Patrick?  We did! 

According to the Christina Science Monitor, centuries ago St. Patrick and his feast day were associated with the color blue. Apparently, green started taking over in the 1600s. The change stuck – for good reason! “Green is one of the colors in Ireland’s tri-color flag, and it has been used in the flags of several Irish revolutionary groups throughout history. Ireland is the ‘Emerald Isle,’ so named for its lush green landscape,” the Christian Science Monitor reports.

And don’t forget – shamrocks are green, too.  According to legend, St. Patrick used the three leaves of the shamrock to teach about the Holy Trinity.

If you want to go the extra mile or take your St. Paddy’s Day chic to a new level, stop in at Spa Space, the best day spa in Chicago! We’ll help you stand out from the crowd with a delicious manicure finished off with a coat of fresh green polish.

If you’re in a hurry to get to the party, try our No-Chip Manicure. Your nails will look great longer than you would expect – up to two full weeks! The No-Chip Manicure at Chicago’s Spa Space will also introduce you to the joys of a manicure that dries instantly!  What’s not to love?  You can upgrade any of our already delightful manicures to a No-Chip Manicure for $20.

There’s the Spa Space Signature Manicure, our classic manicure with a green tea and lemongrass twist. If it’s been a while since your last manicure or if you’re one of those who tend to be rough on your nails, you may want to consider our Road to Recovery Manicure.

It’s perfect if your nails are short, damaged or peeling. We’ll put your hands on the right track with this extended transformative service designed to treat hands, cuticles and nails. You will be sent home with a treatment product (a $13.50 value) to continue the strengthening process. 

If the winter has left your hands dried out and itchy – or you want a little extra indulgence, our Vanilla-Almond Manicure might be for you! following an exfoliating vanilla-sugar scrub, we’ll apply a softening mask that is made with almond oil (a favorite since the days of Cleopatra). To hydrate and smooth rough winter hands, we also include a rich vanilla-almond massage.

Whether you want green nails or not, we’ll take good care of you at Spa Space. There’s a reason we are consistently rated among the best spas in Chicago.  Actually, there are a lot of reasons. Spa Space offers Chicago massages that are truly therapeutic. Whether you’re looking for a great spa in Chicago where you can get massage for couples or are looking for the finest facials in Chicago, let Spa Space, the best day spa in Chicago be your destination.

Spring Ahead: Let Chicago’s best spa help you adjust to the time change

This weekend, it will be time to set our clocks ahead one hour for the start of Daylight Savings Time. We’ll all be losing an hour and that can be hard on your body – especially if you’re already tired or sleep deprived.

“If you are getting seven to eight hours of sound sleep and go to bed a little early the night before, you may wake up feeling refreshed. If you are sleep-deprived already, getting by on six hours, you’re probably in a bit of trouble, especially if you consume alcohol or caffeine close to bedtime,” the experts at WebMD tell us. “In this situation, you may well experience the decrements of performance, concentration, and memory common to sleep-deprived individuals, as well as fatigue and daytime sleepiness.”

Our sleep cycles are largely regulated by our circadian rhythms.  “If you’ve ever noticed that you tend to feel energized and drowsy around the same times every day, you have your circadian rhythm to thank,” the National Sleep Foundation says. “What is it, exactly? Your circadian rhythm is basically a 24-hour internal clock that is running in the background of your brain and cycles between sleepiness and alertness at regular intervals. It’s also known as your sleep/wake cycle.”

It’s great to have the light shining on long summer nights but for many of us, the switch to Daylight Savings Time means we’ll be getting up in the dark – and your body isn’t going to like that.  As WebMD explains, light is what rules your circadian rhythm – and you can use it to help your body adjust to the time change.  “Light suppresses the secretion of the sleep-inducing substance melatonin. So it is important to expose yourself to the light during the waking hours as much as possible, and conversely, do not expose yourself to bright light when it is dark outside,” WebMD says. “For example, if you get up at night to go to the bathroom, do not turn on the light. Prepare beforehand by installing a night light.”

The experts at WebMD also say that practicing good sleep hygiene can help.  “Sleep hygiene is a term used to describe those actions you can take to create sleep-friendly environments and enhance your chances of falling asleep, staying asleep, and sleeping soundly,” they explain. “Basic sleep hygiene includes reducing or eliminating caffeine and alcohol, exercising several hours before bedtime, creating calming rituals before bed to gradually relax yourself (taking a hot bath for example), and wearing ear plugs and eye masks, to name a few. Also important is going to bed and rising at the same time every day. Though there is no evidence that certain diets will actually influence your circadian rhythm, carbohydrates tend to make it easier to fall sleep.”

A revitalizing treatment at Spa Space, which consistently ranks among the best Chicago spas, may also help you adjust to the time change.

Consider a fabulous Chicago massage or, perhaps, an invigorating Exfoliating Body Scrub. Our facial-grade aromatic body scrubs invigorate, exfoliate and leave the skin velvety smooth. The full-body treatment is concluded with the application of a luxurious hydrating moisturizer to give your skin a healthy glow.

Spa Space is one of the most progressive spas in Chicago. Our holistic approach body and mind wellness can help you cope with many of the stresses and strains of this thing we call life. Our carefully-selected, licensed and highly trained professionals have passion for their craft and a dedication to continuing education in their field, and this makes all the difference as they customize each service to the individual. Located in the West Loop, Spa Space offers incredible Chicago massages, revitalizing body treatments and more. Whether you’re looking for a men’s spa, the perfect place for a couples’ spa day or fabulous facials in Chicago, Spa Space is the best day spa in Chicago.

Give the Gift of Experience

Every year the National Retail Federation surveys Americans about their Valentine’s Day plans. This year, things are looking up for love. According to the 2018 NRF survey, which was conducted by Prosper Insights & Analytics, total spending for Valentine’s Day is expected to reach $19.6 billion – that’s up from $18.2 billion last year.

One of the most interesting findings in the report had to with what we’re planning to give that special someone. Sure, candy and flowers are still popular choices, but almost a quarter of Americans who will be getting something for their sweetie this year (23.7%), plan to give a gift of experience. What’s even more interesting is that the NRF says, “42.3% say they would love to receive one.”

That means almost 20% of people receiving a gift are going to be, if not heartbroken, at least disappointed. Don’t let your Valentine be one of them! Give the gift of a spa experience from Spa Space.

 

  • A Valentine’s massage for couples is just one of many possibilities at Spa Space, a leading day spa in Chicago.
  • If she’s never had a Hot Stone Massage, you could give her not only an experience, but a first! And she would always think of you whenever she hears about Hot Stone Massage.
  • How about the ultimate foot massage? Reflexology is an ancient practice that can alleviate stress and promote the body’s ability to heal itself. 35- minute and 1-hour sessions are available.
  • You could treat her to our Vitamin C Booster Facial, which has been featured in Shape magazine. This vitamin-rich treatment is good for all skin types. With this uplifting experience, she’ll enjoy a three-step infusion of revitalizing nutrients: vitamin C serum, hydrating b5 gel, and a balancing hydrator.
  • If it’s true love, our signature treatment might be just the thing to win her heart. We call it Pacific Paradise. She can close her eyes and breathe in the exotic fragrances of the mango sugar body scrub which will be followed by the kukui-coconut oil used during her massage. The gifts of the Pacific do more than delight the senses, the mango enzymes penetrate the skin and help the exfoliation and the kukui-coconut oil nourishes and moisturizes. In other words, she’ll be thanking you for the relaxing massage that eased her tense muscle and the for the soft, smooth skin she now has. This is one of the many reasons we’re consistently rated among the best day spas in Chicago.
  • Then there’s our “Happy Feet” uber-pedicure. This one includes everything we could dream up to delight her senses – from an aromatherapy soak and warming scrub to a cooling treatment mask, hot towels, paraffin dip, extended massage and more. And the whole time she’s relaxing she’ll be thinking “happy” thoughts of you!
  • And for him, maybe our Fitness Facial or, perhaps, he’d enjoy a Man Hands Manicure.

Even for the younger crowd the numbers don’t balance out. The NRF reported that, “6 in 10 younger celebrants (those 18-24) say they’d love to receive one and 4 in 10 plan to gift one.” If you’re looking for a gift for someone in this age category, let your imagination run free. Aim for something that will open his eyes or expand her horizons. You’ll find some fabulous possibilities at Spa Space, known as one of the most innovative spas in Chicago. Consider:

  • Space Signature Peppermint Pedicure
    Runner’s Massage
  • Or even Acupuncture

If you have questions about what to get your special someone, we’d be happy to help.

See What a “Rare Breed” Can Do!

“Spa owners comprise a rare breed of entrepreneur,” Jennifer Keishin Armstrong noted in Day Spa Magazine. “Rather than shrewd businesspeople and cutthroat tycoons, this world attracts a warm-blooded workforce that prioritizes helping people live happier, healthier lives—which is precisely what inspired Natalie Tessler, founder of Chicago’s Spa Space, to leave her job as a tax attorney and open her business.”

 

Natalie opened Spa Space, consistently ranked among the top tier of Chicago spas, more than 15 years ago, wanting to take an ordinary day and transform it into something special for the Chicgoans she passed on the street every day.

 

It hasn’t always been easy. Running a day spa in Chicago never is. As Keishin Armstrong noted, “Since its founding in 2001, Spa Space has faced its share of obstacles—namely, the September 11 tragedy (which occurred just three months after the spa’s grand opening) and the Great Recession. Despite these trials, the resilient Spa Space has emerged victorious, and now stands as one of Chicago’s top-ranked day spas.”

 

Over the years, the popular Chicago massage spa has been showered with accolades and awards. As Keishin Armstrong reported, Spa Space was named Best Massage and Best Spa by Citysearch and a “Rising Star” by the Fashion Foundation of Chicago. The American Massage Therapy Association crowned Natalie “Best Employer.”

 

The awards are nice, but the kind words and enthusiastic reviews from the clients who have had their day transformed by one of the best facials in Chicago, a couples spa day or perhaps a “Mega-Massage” Lavender Pedicure have always meant more to Natalie. Here are a few of them:

 

Amanda R.

“Had a wonderful experience at Spa Space this morning. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. Angie gave me the Instant Lift Brightening Facial. She is amazing. My skin feels incredibly smooth and looks great! Thank you for a great start to my day, ladies!”

 

Patricia L.

“Love Spa Space. Great facility and services in a convenient spot! Pedis are fantastic not to mention the facials and massages!”

 

Sammi S

“My sister and I booked a package for a girls’ weekend. We had massages, reflexology, and the Indian scalp massage. Lunch was booked in between. Everyone was very friendly, timely, and professional. Next time we are in Chicago, a trip here is required!”

 

Dana K.

“MoniKa is the best for guys who just need no frills pedicure… The man’s hands manicure is awesome.”

Top of Form


Denise L.

“I will certainly be back. The ambience was great! I was pampered from the time I walked in the door.”


Kara L.

“Just had the massage of my life by Deedee. I never wanted it to end… Booking another soon!”

 

Angie H.  

“The Staff at Spa Space are great! I recommend that you treat yourself to a massage and facial and leave feeling rejuvenated and refreshed!!!!”

 

Leticia M.  

“Loved it, can’t wait until our next appointment, this was a first for me & I highly recommend a spa day for anyone wanting to relax & be catered to for a day  ? ?”

 

Tahanna M.

“I first came here in 2011, I treated my friends to massages and I got a Swedish prenatal massage. It was the best! The ambiance was wonderful and the customer service was excellent. Since then, I haven’t been disappointed! I just bought a friend a gift certificate, I hope she enjoys it as much as I have!”

 

Kita D.

“Great experience, very welcoming. I loved the massage and the entire set-up. First of many visits. Thanks.”

 

Debra H.

“My 60 mins Signature Full Body Massage was Awesome!! The place is beautiful, relaxing and professional.”

 

Linda V.

“Bianca is a secret weapon for my feet! Great spa for both men and women.”

Calling All Men to Spa Space

Calling All Men to Spa Space

If you’ve been wondering what to get that special guy for a holiday gift this year – even if that special guy is you – look no further than Spa Space, the Chicago spa with the reputation of being one of the best Chicago spas. Spa Space is your preferred spa in downtown Chicago. Located in the West Loop, Spa Space is considered the most progressive Chicago spa downtown for men and women. Focusing on the therapeutic approach to massage and innovations in skin care services and products, Spa Space is unique in its approach to treating body and mind.

Spa Space is acclaimed as a men’s spa. Our environment is very comfortable for men, offering a men’s locker room with steam/rain showers and a men’s relaxation lounge. While all of our services are appropriate for men, some of our most popular services chosen by men include:

Fitness Facial (anti-aging, soothing, rosacea-safe, plant-based) – Our trademark facial for healthy skin. See and feel an immediate difference in texture, clarity and smoothness. This facial is meticulously customized to your skin’s needs: whether it’s intense hydration, clearing breakouts, or repairing sun damage and fine lines. This high-performance, results-oriented treatment combines a gentle glycolic solution with active ingredients and a stimulating facial massage.

Men’s Deep Clean Facial (all skin types) – Using products designed to remove dead skin cells and thoroughly clean the pores, this facial leaves the skin renewed and balanced. Ingrown hairs and breakout-prone areas are addressed.

Instant-Lift Brightening Facial (hyper-pigmentation, dull, aging skin) – Improves elasticity, color tone, balance and overall skin health. Producing the most noticeable instant results, this advanced anti-aging treatment uses enzyme-proteins that increase the elasticity of the skin, with application of layered tightening masks. The highly restorative components of Epicuren’s active enzyme vitamin protein complex were originally developed for burn treatment, and then modified and perfected for treatment of healthy human skin.

Back Facial – Your esthetician will customize the treatment to best suit your skin type. This hard to reach and oft-neglected area will be given a true “facial”: a deep-cleansing, exfoliation, extractions if needed, and a mask to balance the skin.

Ultimate Eye Treat – The healing and restorative powers of collagen are infused into the delicate eye area for improved elasticity, smoothing and plumping fine lines.

Facial Bronzing Application – Your esthetician will expertly apply a layer of non-pore-clogging tanning product to give your restored skin a healthy, sun-kissed glow. The ideal time to bronze is immediately following exfoliation and hydration.

Spa Space also offers a variety of peels for men, including a Brightening Hot Peel (tightening mask), Pigment Balancing Peel, Microdermabrasion (all skin types, anti-aging, anti-acne (non-cystic))), and Dermaplaning plus Peel.

Of course, in addition to facials in Chicago, Spa Space is also down for massage in downtown Chicago, pedicures in Chicago, and more. There’s plenty to do to allow you to enjoy Spa Space as a day spa in Chicago – and it’s also known as a couples day spa. Bring that special someone with you and live it up at Spa Space.

Couples Massage

New Study Highlights the Benefits of Couples Massage

They say you can’t have your cake and eat it, too. But at Spa Space, which is among the top spas in Chicago, you and your partner can absolutely have your cake and eat it, too.

One of our most popular services for a couple’s spa day is our unique and romantic Couples Massage: The Art of Touch. You’ll not only enjoy a fabulous massage from one of our experienced massage therapists, we’ll teach you and your partner massage techniques that will help you both.

This interactive and instructive session is a gift that keeps on giving. According to Health.com, “The power of touch offers major mind-body health benefits—and it just might make your relationship more solid.”

In a story by Amanda MacMillan poster earlier this year, Health.com reports that, “The benefits of professional massages are well documented: they provide stress relief, relax stiff muscles, and deliver soothing self-care.” A new study shows that couples can enjoy those same results and strengthen their relationship when they give each other a massage.

The experts at Health.com went on to say, “The researchers found that both partners’ well being, perceived stress, and coping abilities improved after each rubdown. Those feel-good results remained even three weeks following the end of the massage training. (Overall, 74 percent of participants continued to do partner massage after the course had finished.)

“Of course, when you’re on the receiving end of a massage, it makes sense that you’ll reap these benefits. What’s really interesting, the study authors say, is that physical and emotional well being for both partners—the giver and the receiver—surged after each massage session.”

There are many ways to enjoy a couple’s spa day at Spa Space, where you can enjoy a couple’s massage or pedicure in a private suite for two. It’s one of the very few “true” couple’s massage rooms in Chicago. You can look far and wide, but you won’t find a better day spa in Chicago for a romantic and relaxing spa day.

Moroccan Treatment

Moroccan Oil Head & Scalp Treatment

Moroccan Oil Head & Scalp Treatment

Moroccanoil co-founder Carmen Tal was miles from home when, after a routine color service gone awry, she experienced the powerful Moroccanoil Treatment while traveling. As she witnessed the transformation of her hair instantly revitalized, going from damaged to shiny, smooth, manageable, she went on a quest to share the magic of this argan oil hair treatment with women across the globe.

Argan trees grow and tenaciously survive in semi-desert areas of the Mediterranean. The deep roots and small leaves of the argan tree allow it to resist arid winds and water loss, resulting in a nut with a unique oil profile.

Pure argan oil is a rare and precious oil that is harvested and extracted from the nut of the argan tree. For centuries, women across the Mediterranean have used argan oil in their beauty regimen for vibrant, healthy-looking skin and hair.

Moroccanoil was inspired by the transformative power of argan oil. Rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, this age-old beauty secret has many uses, helping to hydrate and soften your hair, face, body and nails.

With its high content of antioxidants, essential fatty acids and vitamin e, the benefits of argan oil naturally help revitalize skin, increase hair’s elasticity and consistently restore shine to dull, lifeless hair. It is a powerful antioxidant, uv-protector and free-radical neutralizer. Argan oil for hair leaves it beautiful, shiny and nourished with each use.

This month, Spa Space, voted the best spa in Chicago, is pleased to feature a Morrocan Oil Head & Scalp Treatment as an add-on to any of our wonderful Chicago massages! Feel amazing while improving the health of your scalp and hair during your massage. Your therapist will custom-select Moroccan Oil products designed to treat your hair and scalp type, and spend extra time working them into your scalp for stimulation and extra effectiveness. You take home the remaining product for continued hair-therapy!

Known for its progressive approach to everything from facials in Chicago to couples spa days, Spa Space is sending Chicago a message – whether you’re looking for a day spa in Chicago that specializes in women’s and men’s spa services or one of the most progressive spas in Chicago, or simply a great place for a mani/pedi, we are here for you.

Cupping therapy

Spa Space Is Proud to Offer Cupping

Spa Space Is Proud to Offer Cupping

As WebMD explains, “Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.”

Spa Space, one of the best spas in Chicago, is pleased to offer this painless therapy that uses suction and negative pressure to loosen muscles, relieve pain and promote healing. If you suffer from back, neck, leg or shoulder pain, cupping may be able to offer you relief. It can also be helpful if you suffer from anxiety, fatigue, migraines or rheumatism. Cupping can also be a great weight loss tool.

Other conditions for which cupping may be appropriate include:

  • Cellulite
  • Asthma
  • Coughs and colds

Cupping may not be familiar to many Chicago spa goers, but as WebMD points out, it’s far from new. “It dates back to ancient Egyptian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern cultures,” they report. “One of the oldest medical textbooks in the world, the Ebers Papyrus, describes how the ancient Egyptians used cupping therapy in 1,550 B.C.”

Cupping is a type of deep tissue therapy that releases toxins and clears blockages, while also stimulating veins and arteries in the treated area. If you would like to experience this unique treatment, you can rely on one of the most progressive spas in Chicago – Spa Space, a leader in Chicago massages and body treatments.

Spa Space, which consistently ranks among the top spas in Chicago, is sending Chicago a message – whether you’re looking for a men’s spa, a convenient place for manicures and pedicures, or a great all around day spa in Chicago, we are here for you.
