De La Vie Day Spa — Local services in Lake View Township

I've had many massages from many spas across the city and I must say that Jessica at De la Vie is THE best, hands down.

I originally went to her when she was with Windy City Massage (don't get me started on THAT shoddy operation) after I was involved in a pretty serious vehicle accident. My injuries left me unable to do any regular workouts and my muscles began to cramp and the general state of my body was constant discomfort. I had nearly decided to begin using opiates to manage the pain but fortunately I let Jessica lay her hands on me before going that route.

The very first time she massaged me I told her nothing about my accident or the level of my discomfort and just let her do her thing. Without any input she KNEW I'd been through some sort of trauma simply from her initial hands on assessment. The more she got into my 120 minute session the more she would say about my stiff muscles and build up of various toxins and knots. She told me which muscles were pulling on what tendons and how it affected everything for me, from walking to sitting to playing with my children.

The second session I had with her was even more intuitive as she started telling me about my past physical problems that had built up over time due to my not having them worked on. It was at this appointment that I mentioned my accident and how spot on her initial assessment was. It was also when I committed exclusively to having her work on my battered body. Let me tell you it's been miraculous how much pain has been relieved. I can now do my full circuit workouts and though I do not have the strength that I previously did, my range of motion is at one hundred percent and I no longer have any pain associated with my accident.

Not only are her hands incredibly skilled but she creates an incredibly calming ambiance during her session using with what I would call a sort of guided meditation to get you breathing in a way that is not only relaxing but oxygenates your muscles. She also broke out those Chinese fire cup things on several occasions, which was pretty cool. Another time she utilized plastic suction cups to achieve the same effect on my body. I think I've never met a massage therapist who was so naturally intuitive to a person's pain and how to provide relief from it.

I am absolutely convinced that Jessica's magic hands had everything to do with my recovery and current sense of incredible well being. The fact that she does house calls was incredibly convenient on days when I was feeling especially bad physically.

I would recommend De La Vie and Jessica to anyone and everyone who is in need of pain relief and/or...

I don't think I can say enough good things about DeLaVie! So where do I start? First of all, this an amazing place to pamper yourself. DeLaVie Spa offers phenomenal Microdermabrasion treatments, but their facials are the best I've ever had. My skin is glowing and beautiful right after and the results just get better and better as time passes. Emilia and Dragana are super sweet! Wonderful energy and positive people. The space is very clean and modern.

Oh, and the products!!! OMG!! Never have I ever used such quality and amazing products. Not only, I've never seen my skin look so good and knowing that it's all organic and safe makes me feel that much better! I've been looking for a place like this for a long time and I couldn't be happier. I've already stocked up on all their products and now look forward to washing my face. I'm not kidding when I say, I can see a real difference in my skin after doing regular facials with them and using their products. It's the real deal.

It’s an incredibly relaxing experience that leaves you feeling and looking 10 years younger. I highly recommend taking advantage of it before your treatment. They work wonders and are completely natural! Doesn’t get much better than this spa with these ladies! Thank...
