Choose the massage that is right for you with the help of Bob Barrett, a massage therapist with over 30 years of experience in reliving stress and pain in the body with diverse techniques and clientele. Whether you are seeking to relieve arthritis pain, pregnancy discomfort, or speed up recovery time for cosmetic surgery - those are just some of the few, specific concerns that Bob can accommodate - along with the more common and better known benefits of massage therapy involving stress and pain in the body.
Services
More than 25 years of relieving stress and reducing soft tissue pain-from headaches to plantar fasciitis and everything in between. Most of Bob's clients are people suffering from the strain and tension of everyday life and come in a variety of body types and sizes. Bob has worked on a wide range of people, from a new born infant to a 95 year old retired doctor.
Most massages I give combine several styles in each massage. If I'm giving a deep tissue massage and I come across a trigger point, I'm not going to skip over it; I'm going to release the trigger point. Likewise, Swedish and myofascial techniques can enter most massages. That is why we talk about what is troubling you and what you hope to get from your session before we start.

Almost three weeks ago my neck/upper back/shoulder started bothering me to the point where it hurt to move, not to mention keep up with my almost two-year-old son. I knew I needed to do something immediately, so I booked a massage at a place I knew could get me in right away. During the massage, it hurt so bad that I was fighting back tears the whole time, but I never told the massage therapist it was too much because I figured it was what I needed to get rid of the pain. Afterwards, I felt looser, but my pain had moved to the other side. The whole next week I had to take Tylenol every six hours

️ Wonderful!⭐️
Bob is professional, friendly, incredibly talented, applied perfect pressure, and was able to answer any questions I had.
The location of his spa is easy to find in the 400 E. Randolph Condominium building on the 7th floor (just past the automatic doors once you exit the elevator).
His hours are also great.. Sunday- Wednesday 2pm-10pm, Friday 11am-7pm.
I love how he offers evening appointments so I don't have to leave work early.
I can't wait til my next massage!

By far, the best masseur I have encountered in Chicago!!! I have lived in Chicago for almost a decade and Bob definitely is worth it every time I make an appointment! I have referred many friends who are now regulars and they too agree that he is the best! He's located downtown, so you can enjoy some city shopping or dining or sight seeing before or after your massage!

I’ve been going to Bob for massages regularly for almost 5 years now. He creates a very relaxing environment and his technique is incredible! As a professional dancer, I am always in need of body work and Bob knows exactly how to work out all my kinks. Also, as a female being massaged by a male, I have never felt uncomfortable in his space. I highly recommend him to everyone who needs relaxation and/or a deep tissue massage!

I'm not certain of the number of years that I have considered Bob as my massage therapist. It has exceeded more than ten years. Regular bodywork is an important part of my healthcare because of its benefits. Bob is able to end any muscular issues that I'm experiencing. He can "read" my body, and as a result of his knowledge of techniques, I leave the session relaxed and refreshed. In fact, when on I'm on vacation where there is a spa, I generally don't bother to get a massage. Instead I'll select another body treatment. For me, the best massage is at home with the person that knows my body,
