“I had my eyebrows done with Amy. She definitely did an excellent job and I appreciated the waxing technique as she did not use the hot wax method. This way, for anyone using retin A, etc., you do not need to be worried about pulling the top layer of skin off your face... “ – Patricia O. | Read More
“I had my first facial at Ruby Room about a month ago and it was one of the best facials I've ever had--and I am religious in getting facials every six weeks for probably about the last 10 years. Jenifer was amazing! She was very informative and integrated light massage in with the facial, which was very nice. Ruby Room also offers a wide spectrum of physical and mental well-being services which I plan on taking advantage of. If you haven't been --- go. You can thank me later.” – Chris K. | Read More
Amy's facials at Ruby Room were voted THE BEST by Chicago Magazine for good reason! She is very knowledgeable about skin care and tailors your facial to you and your skin care needs. Great experience!” – Valerie K. | Read More
“I had a massage with Stephanie and it was heavenly! I am a regular at getting massages and Stephanie has a gentle yet rhythmic touch that will melt your stress away! I fell asleep about three times! It was great. I will def be back very soon!” – Candice K | Read More
“I came here for my first ever brazilian wax. I had done a lot of research and found out that it is very important to find someone you trust and will make you feel comfortable. This is exactly what I found when I had my first appointment with Karma. I could not have been more relieved when I met her and she walked me through the process. She did such a great job and made me so comfortable. I am excited to keep going back for more waxes, which is something I wasn't sure I could be excited about before I tried it. Price wise, it is middle of the road from other spas I researched. I felt like I got a deal though based on the great service. I definitely will pay the money to get a good experience. Plus the Ruby Room rewards program is super awesome and is an incentive to keep going.” – Roxy D | Read More
“I absolutely love Stephanie's massage. I saw her for an hour massage about a month ago and I can't wait to go back! She really listened to me and completely customized the massage for what I was in need of on that day. Thanks Stephanie!” - Elizabeth K | Read More
“Jenifer G. at Ruby Room saved my skin! I was never known to have distinctively beautiful or vibrant skin. Sometimes I was even embarrassed about my oily/problematic skin. After a recent consultation, she provided excellent product recommendations and long-term tips on how to take care of my skin's health. After a few weeks of using various Arcona products (based on Jen's recommended, custom skin care regimen) and staying hydrated, my skin looks and feels the healthiest ever. I truly appreciate her patience with listening to my initial skin 'issues' diatribe, as well as her honesty and genuine concern. Having the latter attributes are tantamount to having excellent beauty industry-specific skills.” – Kelly H | Read More
“Amazing!!! I had an incredibly ZEN experience at RUBY ROOM!!! I splurged and booked the 90 minute Chakrassage and it was well worth it. This treatment had it all...massage, aromatherapy, reflexology, energy and spiritual work. Stephanie was my therapist and she did a fabulous job, very calming, very knowledgeable. I felt brand new by the time she was done with me. I have recommended Ruby Room and the Chakrassage to friends that have also been extremely satisfied! I hope you too get the chance to enjoy the bliss that Ruby Room offers! I cannot wait to go back!!” – MK | Read More
“I recently visited Ruby Room for a Chakrassage with Gladys. I wanted to take a moment to let you know what a wonderful experience I had. Three Days later I still feel great and look forward to a follow-up session. Gladys was lovely and made me feel at ease right away...in the end I was told that the peacefullness I felt would last perhaps a few hours, perhaps a couple of days, but I must say....I still feel great. Thank you again, Gladys.” – Sylvana Y. | Read More
“I started going to Kimberlyn for massages and I have never felt better. I'm a very athletic girl who trains at CrossFit Chicago …. I lift heavy weights and do a lot of cardio endurance work, and Kimberlyn's fingers and hands are keeping me able to do what I want to do!! ...” – Kerry J. | Read More
“Let me start by saying that the ruby room is beautiful! It has multiple floors, and each floor is for a specific department. Healing, massage, salon...etc. I had an appointment with Wendy, who is their colon hydrotherapy healer. You couldn't ask for a better person for this job. I arrived at the spa and was greeted politely right away. ...” - Christina L. | Read More
“I have been going to Ruby Room for over two years. I can honestly say every visit has been an enjoyable one. Naturally some more than others but never a bad experience. Over the past few months I started seeing a relatively new masseuse with Ruby Room named Kimberlyn. I have had trouble with major headaches for years and have seen many doctors, chiropractors and masseuses for this issue. ...” – Jeff P. | Read More
“I went a few weeks ago for a full body massage (thanks to groupon) and had Kimberlyn as a massage therapist. She was incredible--very attentive and responsive. I've gotten several massages in the past from other spas, but Kimberlyn's stood out because she assessed my overall wellness and paid attention to parts I didn't even realize were sore. I would definitely recommend this to almost anyone looking for a spa in Chicago. They have a great range of services and techniques, and really make sure your experience is ideal.” – Sally M. | Read More
“I wouldn't go anywhere else ever again for a spa treatment. If you need a massage or are feeling down, GO SEE ASLANA. She is amazing. Don't even worry about telling her where it hurts because she already knows. I have also seen Colleen for a radical forgiveness session. I feel the best I have in years!!” – Heather S. | Read More
“First I have to say that the people that work here are like a cloud of goodness and calm that will crash over every ounce of stress that you are carrying.

“I've been going to Ruby Room for about 2 years. Terrific place. Employees really make the extra effort which is unusual these days. My massages and facials are always terrific and the Arcona skin care line they use is the best I have ever tried and I've tried them all. I talk about this place all this time to anyone looking for a great spa experience.” -Karalin | Read More
“I came in and received one of the most profound massages by Aslana. She is a truly gifted therapist as well as a healer. During our session she channeled information for me that was healing and inspirational. I get massage twice a month and will come from the burbs to see her regularly. She is a healer, a massage and bodywork therapist, yoga instructor and also to my surprise does healing feng shui haircuts. I can’t wait to go back to Ruby Room again, the personnel is very kind and helpful.” – Kendra | Read More
“I had a fantastic massage with Laurel during Spa Week. I will definitely go back for another one with her. She was great, one of the best massages I've ever had.” - Annie | Read More
“A full service spa that is actually interested in your well-being! So far the services I've had are cut, style and eyebrow waxing. And they were all outstanding! I've had a couple of different stylists there, and they were all wonderful. It's a bummer to get used to working with someone and find out they've left, but it's also really great to walk back in and find out that the new stylist has all of the notes on your cut and preferences! ...” -Jessica F | Read More
“My sister brought me to ruby room as a divorce celebration. We really enjoyed ourselves and I needed it. The girls at the front desk were nice and genuine. Our facials were very relaxing and we were glowing at lunch because this hot guy came up to our table (he was sooooo cute). We bought a smoothie and hung out in the garden in the rear after our service. The place is really beautiful. A real treat and we will certainly be back to try some of their other services.” | Read More
“The day after I graduated law school, I got a massage at the Ruby Room. The masseuse, Amanda, was great. More than great. At first I was a little put off - Amanda was pulling my arm in odd ways, and I sort of thought "What is this BS? It's not doing anything," then suddenly the muscle tension in my upper shoulder was GONE...” -Amanda H | Read More
“I’ve been so thankful to discover Gladys at Ruby Room. When I schedule a massage it’s like no other I’ve received anywhere else. When she asks me how I’m doing, we have a real discussion about how I am and she helps me to deal with the challenges in my life in a way that’s helpful both at Ruby Room and in my daily life.” -Kyle | Read More

“Every time I get a facial from Amy, I feel renewed. It’s a seamless experience and it makes me feel really cared for… which is terrific given we spend most of our days caring for others.” | Read More
“They don't mess around w/ massages here. I had a GREAT massage experience. Would highly recommend it. Have not tried their other services, but was very impressed with what they do have to offer. Get a massage and ask for Gladys. The only minor flaw was that it was a little difficult to schedule an appt and get on their calendar--even during the weekday. That's how good/busy they are, I guess!” –Sara V. | Read More
“I've been going to RR for about a year now, and consistently get the best facials and massages. The Arcona products have absolutely transformed by skin, and all the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. I've been to many other spas before, but I'm a die-hard with Ruby Room now! | Read More
“I went to the Ruby Room thanks to Groupon and I was thoroughly impressed. I got a 90-minute massage and the therapist was attentive and thorough. The staff there was all very helpful and I would recommend their massages to a friend…” -Kelcey C. | Read More
“I had a wonderful experience at Ruby Room today. My massage therapist, Kimberlyn, was amazing. She listened to me as I described my problem areas and she did her own analysis by assessing my posture. The massage was then focused on my problem areas. She also told me different exercises to do in the gym to balance out my weak areas. It was the best massage i've head in Chicago and i've been to several places in the loop and Wicker Park/ Bucktown area.
I also received a gloss in their salon and my hair looks great! … I will be back!” -Nicole S. | Read More
“Thanks to Spa Week, I was able to afford an Arcona Facial at Ruby Room on Thursday. It was a lovely experience from the moment I set foot inside the business. I was welcomed and offered tea as I waited for my facial to begin. Jenifer began my facial by having me pull a tarot card (I think) from a deck. And based on what I chose, she selected a spray meant to work in sync with the results on the card. I liked that...even though I pulled "B Quiet," and that is nearly impossible for me. The products didn't bother my sensitive skin, and they smelled wonderful. Jenifer has a very light and soothing touch, and I'm sure I walked out glowing. I would absolutely recommend going back.” -Stacy F. | Read More
“If you are looking for an amazing massage experience, I highly recommend Gladys at the Ruby Room. I have been here several different times over the last couple of years and am truly never disappointed. This woman must have hands of magic, let me tell you! I've had massages at several different places (both local and on vacations) and they just simply never compare. The massage is always incredibly relaxing and Gladys always seems to get the pressure just-right, but the long-term benefits, both physically and mentally, far outlast just the massage itself. The overall experience at the Ruby Room is also always a treat. The "waiting room" once you get back to the spa area is relaxing, and they usually let you relax there a little while after your service if you need to. I recommend getting there just a few minutes early so you can unwind with a mug of the Aveda tea before they take you back to your massage. I haven't tried the intuitive services but those are next on my list!” -Jill K | Read More
“My hubby got me a gift certificate here based on my request for the "best facial in Chicago" and he wasn't far off. The place when you walk in has old Chicago charm, and the staff is absolutely wonderful. They make you feel welcome and right at home. The tea I received while waiting was delicious and the "waiting area" was comfortable and peaceful. Jenifer was amazing. She was very informative and gave an amazing facial. I also received the crystal eyes, which was a favorite of guests. I give the place 5 stars for all this.” -T.S. | Read More
“I couldnt have asked for a better MT--Shannon was the BEST!! I had had a rough week at work, and with her magic, she completely melted away my stresses and talked with me afterward about what would work best for me based on my lifestyle. All smiles, professional, and a very positive enery; Shannon made me want to go back to Ruby Room for anything...and I know for sure I will be back to her for all my much-needed massages! From the polite and friendly staff at the get-go, to the relaxing atmosphere, I truly had a fabulous experience. I'll be back Ruby Room.” -Lindsday D. | Read More
“Picture, if you will, Spa Week 2010. I really love getting facials, but feel like I can never afford them, so I made an appointment with the Ruby Room for a Spa Week Facial with Jenifer. It was wonderful! We started off choosing the aromatherapy scent we were going to use to revive my energy. Seemed a little hokey, but when I found out which one I was to use, the coincidence was a little overwhelming. The facial itself was really nice and relaxing and my favorite part: NO extractions! yay!! My skin looked amazing, and Jenifer took the time to discuss an actual skin care regimen, which is something I'd been planning to do for some time. Because my sister's wedding is coming up, we're going to work together over the next several months to ensure my skin looks as nice as it can. So, I scheduled another facial appointment--I deserve it. ;) The Arcona skincare products have been really great as well. It's now 18 days after my facial and my skin looks just as nice as it did when I walked out of the spa. Totally worth checking out.” -Kathy A. | Read More
