"I was doing high intensity interval training, which caused serious injuries to my knee and shoulder, so I wanted to get back into full body resistance training and cardio. After reading reviews, I chose Dan. It has been a wonderful ride ever since. He's very smart, thoughtful, and incredibly enthusiastic. He spends a great deal of time tracking your numbers so that there is genuine accountability as to the extent of your progress. After I saw the orthopedist about my shoulder and went to physical therapy, Dan took the recommended physical therapy exercises and integrated them directly into my workouts. Very creative; very cool. He's easy to communicate by text or email, and incredibly responsive. He's also very knowledgeable about the Chicago performing arts scene, which I enjoy discussing with him. Bottom line: I'm getting stronger; feeling more fit and confident; and not getting injured. Dan's been great."

"I had an amazing experience with A Poet's Palm massage therapy! I had lower back pain,as well as neck pain when I came in. When I get off the table the pain was gone! I was beyond satisfied with his professionalism and his need to be very precise on my problem areas! I Definitely will be booking another appointment soon!"

"Very attentive person and real professional. Thank you very much !"

"Purchased a Groupon to "try it out" and both my husband & I now have a set schedule for our massages every month. Very relaxing and always works on any troubled areas. Tishanna does a great job!"

"Going to Lina every month! She helped me with migraines!"

"Loved my massage. Environment was relaxing and all my areas of concerns were addressed. I felt the masseuse had a real knowledge of anatomy which she applied when targeting my troubled areas."

"Cheryl has an amazing ability to palpate tightness and trigger points and realizes the right amount of pressure to relieve the tension. As I am a physical therapist, I have high expectations, and she exceeded them! I will definitely be back, and would highly recommend Cheryl to anyone looking for a great massage therapist."

"Oleg has been my massage therapist for the past several years. He also has performed several acupunture treatments on me as well. He has treated my plantar fasciitis and rotator cuff tear successfully and I continue to see him for massages, as I work out regularly and feel the regular massages help to keep my muscles looser than they would be otherwise! His expertise in acupuncture helped me with my chronic fatigue as well. I highly recommend Oleg for either massage or acupuncture!"

"This was my first appointment with Sergio. He was VERY responsive from my first contact onward. My schedule changed a bit, and he was graciously flexible in working around my delay. He met me at the door with a friendly smile, and spoke with me for a few minutes to identify areas which needed focus. The massage was very professional and therapeutic, with him asking several times if the pressure was OK. He focused on my problem areas, and really helped loosen up some very tight muscles. Sergio was very polite and professional throughout, and I would not hesitate to recommend him. I know I will be going back again!"

"Idania was awesome! I hurt my back and needed someone quickly. She was incredibly responsive, made the appointment quickly, and was even early for the appointment. She was so good at finding and taking care of the problem areas, great great great massage. I felt better that night and the next day was almost 100%. We have found our regular massage therapist for sure!"
