This place was amazing!!! I got the deep tissue from the owner - and he did fantastic. They both taught us a lot during the massage and explained the pain and pressure points and eventually worked them all out. Pretty impressive. I’ve been getting massages for years but this may be the best one I’ve ever had. Will be coming back! Thanks guys 🙏
I had a groupon from a friend as a gift.Checked out the place, I had a back surgery 2 years ago.Had a chance to work with May (or Mae).Their massage is definitely more on deep tissue / semi-hardcore for new people. Just let the therapist know when its too rough. I hope my body will feel better after the soreness.I think there is a little lack of communication, possibly because there was a language barrier. However, nice service and decent environment. I will see how I feel after I rest, possibly come back to ease my back complication. :)
Was amazing. I didnt get the massage, my mom did, but I was relaxed after it too. Very friendly and accommodating, nice music good tea and there was even a cat! My mom felt immediate relief and wants to return.Edit: Have had 2 massages since this review. Benjamin and Angel. Both guys were great. Felt immediately better
Absolutely amazing! Ben was extremely professional and knowledgeable. Definitely going back and its a hidden treasure. Ive been experiencing back and neck pain for months now, and with one acupressure session, i already feel better. Thanks for your service, you have a new customer
Rich is a wizard. I walked in today in pain with tension all through my neck and back. I’ve been in constant pain for 3 weeks and I feel fixed. My neck was crunching when I turned my head and now it’s limber and released and I feel like I’m floating.I never leave reviews but Rich earned a great review and more. Incredible service for the price. A beautiful, clean, modest place with excellent friendly service start to finish.The combination, of massage, stretching and aromas is was perfect.Can’t recommend enough. Thank you.
I have had various types of massages over the years all over the USA. Mayfair Massage was like finding a treasure in my own backyard. Angels expertise read my 49 year old body like a book. He worked out my neck and back from years of both boxing and sitting at a computer the last 3 months. I feel like now I start working out again without pinching a nerve. The health benefits, professionalism without pretentious attitudes, and genuine care tells me I need to make this a priority consistently. Thanks Angel!
This place was amazing. Totally real deal. The massage was amazing. Myself and 2 friends went and we all enjoyed our hour massages and the employees are so kind and generous. We all did a deep massage and if you have never been before we recommend going light or medium because the deep is deep! But an unbelievable awesome experience.
Wonderful experience! Everyone is very nice and welcoming. I had an issue with my neck and shoulder. There was a huge knot in my neck. I was in serious pain. After two sessions, I felt so much better! I’m so glad they helped me out. I saw May and Rich. Both were exceptional and have different styles. Thank you for the help. Hands down recommend this location if you want a great massage.
Incredible experience. I had a 90 minute massage with Rich. I came in with a huge knot under my shoulder blade and I was also just feeling down from the winter weather. After the massage I felt like I went through a portal, I was so relaxed and my energy seemed to be flowing more evenly or something. The space is really nice and welcoming, very comfortable, and the people who work there are kind and knowledgeable. I will definitely be returning.
This place is the real deal. Now compared to all the other commercial massage places, at Mayfair they actually do medicinal massage. There were points on my back that i didnt even know they existed and that they were so tense. Atmosphere is nice, clean. I like that it is not super booked and is quite flexible with appointments. Both Rich and Mae are awesome. Would definitely recommend. It is good to let them know what kind of pressure one prefers.
I cannot say enough about how great Natalia & Benjamin both were to me last week. They care so much about how their clients feel, and it shows. They love making people feel better and have less pain.I have so much relief this week from lower back and glute/hip pain that’s been bothering me for MONTHS! Thank you thank you thank you so much. I cannot wait to visit again.
Mayfair Massage was such a pleasant experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for relaxation. I found MM on Groupon and selected it based on its high ratings and it was definitely a great choice. The space had a very comfortable homely feel complete with soothing music and an adorable cat. Rich did an incredible job with my full body massage. I felt relaxed and comfortable with him. He pays very close attention to your needs and adjusts wonderfully. I feel that Mayfair Massage is definitely the bang for your buck and I will be returning here regularly :)
Online scheduling is apparently pointless as I was called less than 90 minutes before my appointment time (despite booking several days beforehand) requesting a long postponement or rescheduling for a different day because their therapist doesn’t even arrive until several hours after the time they allowed me to book. I now have to wait for a refund, and am tense and annoyed; so it feels like I got the opposite of a massage.
Very good and relaxing massage. Have visited Mayfair massage once before. Reason for a 1 star review is an apparent miscommunication between the merchant and Groupon that led to customer dissatisfaction.I bought a Groupon coupon for Mayfair Massage and booked an appointment using the Groupon scheduling tool. Upon arriving to Mayfair Massage at my booking time I was informed that Groupon coupons cannot be used as the deal has ended...(Groupon listed expiration date of March 26th on this Coupon). Was further instructed to pursue a refund with Groupon.Long story short - I spent an hour on Sunday morning to drive to Mayfair massage and left disappointed and not having received the service I purchased and paid for...
I’ve now received two massages from Rich. He’s calm, friendly, attentive, and incredible at his craft. The first massage was absolutely amazing; I felt by the time he finished Rich had erased every bit of stress from my body. I returned for a second massage today, and asked him to focus on my arm and neck, both of which were causing me considerable pain. Rich is fantastic - he was able to quickly locate where the pain originated and worked through the issue so that within the hour all pain and stiffness had fully subsided. I highly recommend him.
Wow! I am extremely impressed by this place. I have really only ever gone for a massage at a fancy spa at a hotel or at my chiropractor so was hesitant to try this place. I received a groupon as a gift and I am SO happy that it made me try this place. It is a no frills spa but is extremely clean and the massages are amazing. Rich in particular is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I now go at least once a month as part of my self-care/maintenance routine for my body. Give this plat a try!
I came here looking for relief from upper back and shoulder pain that was making deep breathing, sneezing and coughing extremely painful and dibilatating. Before searching for chiropractors, I decided its best to relieve tension with a massage. Rich was extremely attentive, mindful and skilled in his practice. I have never met someone so determined to heal another person. Near the end of our session, I was able to breathe again. He is truly wonderful. Clean, comfortable atmosphere. The gentleman at the front desk was so kind and welcoming and has also been doing massage therapy since the 60s! I will be back soon! Thank you both!!!
I hate to leave a less then 5 star review for a small business at this time, but I could have complained to the city and chose not to risk getting them fined.Last weekend I spent 20 minutes in their small lobby with a man who was unmasked. It made me really uncomfortable, so I politely asked the man if he was there for a massage and if he would mind putting on a mask.Immediately after this, the owner came out, asked me my appointment time, how I booked it and if I would reschedule. The other customer came within two feet of me (still unmasked) to put on his shoes. At that point, I felt so disrespected that I told the owner I would just get a refund.I had booked this through ClassPass, which Ive done a few times before and had good experiences there. I feel like I was asked to leave bc they would make more money from the maskless man in the lobby.I was really disappointed by this experience and I feel like others should know that theyre not enforcing the mask mandate prior to going.
I had a massage with John. The purpose was to relax and destress from a tough few weeks and it was a great experience. John was very knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable by taking time to understand my goals for the 90-minutes. I will be going back more regularly for other specific problems I have with my body, including some acupuncture treatment.
Purchased a 90 minute massage on Groupon and it was the best money ever spent. The therapist, Rich was very attentive, calm, and personable, and it was a great experience. The massage room was small, but had the perfect massage atmosphere. I left feeling refreshed and much better. Highly recommend!
I am a regular at MMAS for about 3 years now. Staff is always welcoming, friendly and professional. Masseuses are extremely client-oriented, adjusting techniques and massage styles to your liking and meeting your needs, whether it’s relaxation or deep-tissue knot revolving massage. Highly recommend Angel!
I would not recommend this place for nobody. First time there and service was terrible they put u in a room with some needles for 15-30 mins and I can’t lay on my back and he lays me on my back for 30 mins and I told him I had back issues and made it worst. It is defiantly not worth it. My hand and back was my issue and they made no effort in making it better at all. Price is also not worth it at all. 130 price is outrageous tip 30 and defiantly not worth it at all. First and last time there.
I just had my third massage with May. It was extremely therapeutic. Her knowledge of the muscular skeleton system, together with Bens consultation, my right shoulder and left ankle issues resulted in 70% more Mobility without pain than any other therapeutic massage Ive had over the last 15 years. I highly recommend Mayfair massage
Tucked away in a small plaza with a cobblestone driveway (like in the old town exhibit at the Museum of Science & Industry) is an inconspicuous place where my best massage waited. I have driven past this plaza several hundred times, but only discovered Mayfair Massage through a Groupon. It already had rave reviews and seeing that I was due for some me time, I went and so began the first of many visits, I’m sure. I’ve had great massages before, but my massage therapist, Jim, asked me questions and definitely listened. I asked for deep massage because I needed my muscles to be put in check. Any lighter pressure is like patting steaks before you grill them. What’s the point? I fell into a meditative state where I made a point to be in the moment as my mind tends to wander off to bills, and work and all that other necessary, but not fun stuff. There was soothing music, pleasant essential oils, and though no hot stones, there were hot towels that were just as good. Jim’s hands were on fire (or lit as the kids say). He was professional and I will definitely return. Obviously, this is a place I highly recommend. Next time, I will also try the acupuncture. Take care of your mind, body and spirit!
I had the best massage of my life with Ben. It was not at all what I was used to, but I felt unbelievably flexible and relaxed afterwards. The only massage that came close to this was while I was in Thailand. I felt like spots in my back that have caused pain were manipulated in a way that loosened up my whole back. I cant wait to get another massage by Ben. A couple of notes regarding other posts - dont be put off by the non-traditional atmosphere. This is not a spa. You will get a massage that will improve your health, not your senses.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 20+ stars if I could!!! Wow, this place is absolutely wonderful. It is definitely worth the drive from the city. The owner and employees are incredible. I had one of the best massages in my life from this establishment. The place is clean, bright, and warm. The employees are knowledgeable with the body. You also don’t have to book it through Groupon- just call them and they will match the Groupon price. They are so nice! I would definitely come back again. You won’t be disappointed!
I had a massage from Rich today. I cannot express how wonderfully relaxing this was for me. I carry so much tension in my body along with sciatic pain. Rich alleviated it all. I felt like I was in heaven. The facility is clean, private, and the staff are very kind. I cannot wait to get another massage from Rich. Thank you!!!!
Jenna really has a gift - her treatments are incredible. I’ve been recovering from a volleyball injury that had created some really challenging imbalances and pain patterns in my hip and low back, and I’ve made the most significant progress while working with Jenna. She understands the body in a much deeper way than just physiology, and seems to be able to intuit what areas need what type of attention - whether that’s trigger point therapy, tissue massage, cupping or even energy work. As an active person in the health field I’ve been to many many massage therapists and body workers over the years, and Jenna is definitely among the best.
I had an 1.5 hour to kill in the area so thought I would get a massage. I bought the groupon for this place and came in for an hour massage. The massage was good- a deep tissue massage. Was it relaxing? Not in the slightest. The room where the massage was too bright for me to fully relax but the bigger distraction was the masseuse farted loudly at least 4 times. The first time okay a bit of an accident i get it. The 2nd,3rd and 4th farts were like please excuse your self and go take care of whatever you need. The gentleman was a bit older and I was trying to be understanding but I have never experienced this during a massage. I have learned too that I am not a fan of someone walking on my body with their feet- i prefer the massages where only their hands or gua sha are used.
I have done many kinds of bodywork over the years, and nothing has compared to the service I receive here. Pain that I thought was lifelong is suddenly gone. I leave each session not just relaxed, but feeling healed. My go-to guy is Phiwan, and each time he has surpassed expectations. This team is made of true masters of their craft!
My god! Felt soooooo heavenly! Nok, Noi really took care of me and my friend. She made me feel comfortable for my first time being there took out my nots and helped my back pain and not to forget Nittaya was so nice taking care of me at the front! Will definitely be going back I love it here!
Rich was great! Exceeded my expectations! Focused on the area that needed improvement with lots of care. Im very pleased with my visit, and I highly recommend coming here. Very wonderful and calming atmosphere as well. The entire visit was fantastic! Thank you Mayfair!!!
I bought a groupon for this place hoping for the usual deep tissue massage I’ve gotten at many other Chinese and Korean places. What I got was a bizarre massage with too much inappropriate touching and no attention to the areas I highlighted. If you’re a lady beware of this possibility.
Jim was my massage therapist today and I cant recommend him enough, he asked if I was having any particular problems & I discussed with him what was bothering me and boom he went to work to totally release all the tight points . Left Mayfair massage feeling like a new man ! Thanks Jim and absolutely recommend this spa 😎

2022-08-07Amazing. The very best massage I have ever had. I am in town after a long flight and then drive and last night my back was killing me. I booked a Sunday appointment at 9:15. I wish I lived here because I would be going to Sue all the time. She was incredible. I was going to go to chiropractor after my appointment but I felt so good I didn’t need to. Her technique is so therapeutic. Next time I come to Chicago I will for sure be back.

2022-09-13An amazing experience. I wasn’t sure what to expect upon arrival it isn’t your typical massage facility. But it was spectacular. They took me on short notice and I had Sue and she was phenomenal. I will be back and recommending to everyone.

2022-06-20First time here for the acupuncture coz my back hurts a lot. Ive read the reviews, they are all good. But i cant justify it coz I think i was just robbed!!! I asked twice how much was the cost of the acupuncture, Pen said its $70. So i went ahead and had it. After the very painful session with 15min massage, i was charged $120!!! Goodness! What a way to rob people. Its not worth it. Wont be coming back here anymore...terrible experience ...

2022-08-16Amazing experience every time. They were able to help me with the pain I was in, just as good if not better than going to a chiropractor. I went recently for sciatic pain and the next day I re-injured myself and they made time to have me come in again to make sure I wasn’t experiencing chronic pain. They even gave me advice on how to prevent further injury. They really know how to help with pain/injury and want to make sure you feel better.

2021-09-26Definitely received the therapeutic massage I was seeking. I needed pain relief and not just relaxation and that is what I received. While not the high-end massage at some places, the therapist was completely concentrated on me and focused on my particular needs. You can tell it is family run which gives it a more comfortable atmosphere.

2020-02-09The place is clean, location is good, (they’re located in this small plaza where Is easy to find parking ) and the employees are absolutely amazing (friendly and knowledgeable) Me and 2 friends decided to spoil ourselves and we decided to give them a try. I haven’t got a massage in the past 2 months and I did feel pretty intense. I had the pleasure of meeting Ben which did take care of me. I’m telling you I never had a massage like today. I choose today to get a deep one which I think was the best choice ever. We all walked out super happy and relaxed. this is the place where we’ll definitely go back. We highly recommended it! Hands down. Thank you so much for such a great experience 👏🏻👏🏻
