I had my first Thai massage experience here, and it was phenomenal! My masseuse's name is Sky, and she is the best. She is super friendly and professional. For a 90-minute massage, it was definitely worth the price. I will come back soon for sure.

I decided to come here on my lunch break, a day before having knee surgery, and am I glad I did! I was able to get an appointment within two hours of them on Google
Maps. The text reply after booking was prompt and responsive. I booked the deep tissue but they were flexible and allowed me to change to the traditional Thai massage minutes within my massage beginning (very accommodating staff)
My body feels loosened up, my mind at ease and clear of worry about the surgery.
The place was clean, with nice ambiance and aromas and the price was very affordable and reasonable for their location. I will make coming here a habit for a few lunch breaks out of the year!

Today was my first time going to Thai Lotus Bodywork South-loop. I had a phenomenal time. I chose the Thai yoga stretching. My masseuse name is Bella. Bella was attentive, friendly, & professional. I walked in with left shoulder pain with low mobility. I walked out ready to do a backwards flip down Wabash. She rub, massaged and stretched the pain away. She walked my back and cracked all the areas that needed the pressure release and now I feel brand new. I will be back really soon. If you haven’t tried this place make sure you book your first appointment soon. You will not be disappointed. Try it for yourself. Ask for Bella and don’t forget to tip.

Signed up for the couple massage, Sky and Jo did a really great job and were super friendly. Pressure was on point! Sky even checked in a few times throughout the massage session to see if the pressure was good enough. Will be back!

I had a PHENOMENAL Thai massage here while in town for work. I arrived sore from working out the day prior, and left feeling wonderful & rubbery. The massage therapist was very attentive to pressure and my areas for focus. I would easily recommend this place, and the next time I'm in Chicago, I will definitely be coming back.

This was my first experience with Thai Lotus. I write this review in the spirit of providing info on my experience that may influence your choice. First, The facility is nice enough, clean, warm and inviting. When I arrived I was greeted pleasantly by my practitioner and directed to the room. There are a few concerns that I have 1) Typically a massage establishment asks you to fill out forms regarding your medical history, emergency contacts, etc. This did not occur. 2) I didn’t see any evidence of formal training or certifications. I am sure they must be licenesd appropriately by the State of Illinois and the City of Chicago, but nothing that spoke to the skills of the the technicians/practitioners 3) This is NOT traditional Thai massage. I have had those services in Asia, as well as in real Thai massage places around Illinois and Arizona. So if you are seeking Thai massage this may not be the place for you. In fairness to the establishment I don’t think the website purports to be such. I read the name and the mention of stretching through my own lens. Not their fault. This is basically Swedish massage with a little bit of stretching. Now I consider myself to be a spa baby meaning I love therapists who read your body and adjust accordingly. The service I received was more workmanlike and performative meaning 10 strokes here, 10 strokes there—NEXT. It was hard for me to relax because the pressure was way too intense. Again, on balance when I said ouch the therapist immediately adjusted. In fact, more than a week later I have an issue with my neck induced by the therapy. I doubt these folks have studied anatomy, neurological connections etc. They are nice enough people (even give you cookies and tea!) but I wouldn’t go back. I’d rather pay a bit more for a more skilled and competent practitioner. If you are looking for a good rubdown this might be the place for you

Aung is the best! I went there in June and in October, he gave me the best two massage experiences I had ever had. He finds the trigger points so well. His pressure is very good but he goes so smoothly so you don’t even feel it. I remember going to other therapists and having to hold my breath to endure the pain to have my muscle knots opened, but with him it just feels so good. He told me he practiced massaging in several Asian countries and I was not surprised. The ointments smell very Asian, too 🙂

Husband and I were in town and looking for some bodywork before a race and did a couples massage. Both therapists did a great job working through our tension spots. Great value and we will definitely be back.
