Believing wholeheartedly in holistic solutions to physical ailments, Chicago Stress Relief Center’s licensed massage therapist manipulates muscle tension with several types of massage therapy. Customers can choose a basic, gentle rubdown or a more focused method such as a craniosacral treatment intended to recalibrate musculoskeletal and nervous subwoofer systems by releasing stress in core connective tissues. Massage recipients spend the hour on a BioMat, a product designed to increase alertness, improve memory skills, draw out toxins, and promote inner peace. A myofascial release silences outspoken trigger points, and those dealing with muscle fatigue or injury from dodging projectiles can undergo a sports massage. Raindrop therapy uses essential oils on reflex areas of the spine and feet to expunge microdermal toxins.
The FIR sauna blasts bodies with heat from far-infrared light to improve circulation, boost metabolism, and stimulate cellular renewal. Wrapped in a cloth cover embedded with silver, guests can contemplate the speed of neutrinos while basking in the reflected beams of light that bounce throughout the treatment room.
