Testimonial's - Energize Sports Massage

Alex is great!
I'm a competitive runner, cyclist, rower, and sometimes triathlete. I first saw Alex when I was training for a full Iron man a few years ago. I thought
massage would be a rare investment for me. I still can't afford to go as often
as I'd like, but Alex made me realize how much massage does for my training
. I try to go
about a week before every major race now (Alex is also great at talking
about exact massage timing with me so I can decide what day is best for my
pre-race tuneup). Love his office studio, so relaxing, And I personally wanted a personal therapist & private setting.

When I come in for a massage, I never feel rushed. Alex takes his time to chat before turning to ask about what specific injuries, muscle soreness, or other
issues he should focus on in a given session. Post-massage, He lets me relax
for a bit before I get up and again we chat before I leave. I've also been going in
for foot reflexology the past couple months to help recover from some
persistent plantar fasciitis. It's finally clearing up and I'm happy with the
massages.

I have been going to Energize for years and should have written this earlier.
I have had many massages in the past and was looking for a local place to get
a deep tissue massage and found Energize. Anthony greets you warmly and sits
with you before the massage to talk and relax. It's a nice transition from the
hectic world to the zen you will be in shortly. He has a separate room with his studio
and a heated table ( for those cold Chicago winters) with the right music
playing in the background to thoroughly relax you.
I always go for a 90 minute massage and am never disappointed. He thoroughly
works my back and gets deep in the the muscles to remove any knots I have.
I always leave feeling so relaxed and my muscles are saying 'thank you'.
I find the prices very fair - a lot less than the large spas - and I feel that the
massage I get is more personalized to my body.
Total FIVE Star Rating: Highly recommended

Had to write a review before I left Chicago on Energize Sports Massage.
My buddies & I are from India, visiting Chicago for the holidays, Needed the
service of a professional Deep Tissue therapist. I always had a female
practitioner in the past. I play Lacrosse & soccer back home, My shoulders,
lower back has a lot of knots, had a female therapist at a neighborhood spa,
but she just could not get enough pressure . this place was call Massage Envy,
we were Not satisfied. A customer waiting for his girlfriend. who was a cross fit athlete, told me about Energize Sports Massage & Coach Anthony. That he
worked out of his Andersonville condo, private, perfect massage room, Gave
him a call. told him we had three in need of his hands, We did not mind the wait.
Such a professional, doctor of sports medicine/ muscle/tendon tightness, He is a sports avid, politics, TV, conversation was so much fun. I explained my muscle
problem and that I was some what uneasy of having a man massage me. Massage
Room, Candlelight, Meditation music, heated massage table, He drape,me, explain
the massage, and he slowly when to work on me From the very first session I felt completely comfortable and body so relaxed. And his deep tissue stretch massage/ hot towel therapy transports me to another realm.. I know it sounds corny but
when you get a massage from him you'll get it. He's professional, skilled, down
to earth, easy to work with, loves what he does, and did I say the massage will
make you see god?!! My two friends were so impressed, we booked another 90 min. massage before we left .Chicago.
Don't hesitate to book with Anthony.[ I highly recommend,You will never go anywhere else again.]
