What our clients are saying!
"I'm a massage snob. Most therapists I've dealt with don't take the time to focus on a particular area and really work through things. Not the case here. I suffer from scoleosis, and Courtney was able to locate the areas impacts as well as explain to me the way it impacts other related areas. I'm going back, for sure."
- Shawn R.
"Courtney is my foot doctor!! My very flat feet are full of knots from playing basketball and when it gets painful I go see the Doc. Courtney has me back on my feet (pun intended) the next day. She is attentive to my needs and has helped me understand what causes the pains and how to prevent it on my own. She has endless energy and enthusiasm for her job. I would recommend her for men looking for deep tissue relief, other massage therapists never seem to have the strength to truly work out the knots and she gets it done every time."
- Adam B.
"I was very satisfied with my experience. It is clear that Courtney has a passion for therapeutic massage therapy. She's really knowledgeable in her field and is incredibly helpful in getting rid of aches and pains! She gives an outstanding deep tissue massage, and is also willing to tailor the massage to problem areas. As an added bonus, she always seems to offer very useful tips on how to help prevent the pain in the future because she has such a good understanding of how all the body's parts work together. All in all, she's genuinely talented at what she does. I'll definitely be back!"

“I don’t know what more to say, The Rub Chicago is awesome!
Better than ‘Excellent’. Their therapist, Courtney, listens to her client’s needs really well. The pressure was just right and even over-all technique is perfect.
Courtney has healing hands. Thank you!”
