Hurty.

Om.

A lively chat with the owner of this shop for all things metaphysically healing will set you down the path to inner health. At the very least, you’ll probably leave with some essential oils that calm your Type-A self DOWN for one flippin’ minute. Jeez.

Tarot card readings can provide insight into your future, meditation groups can still your mind, chanting, Reiki, and chakra education — it’s all here for you, your ailing/wandering/missing spirit, and your third eye.

The machines are shiny and yes, actually available, the staff is hot and nice, the place is clean as a whistle, and if you get into the habit of going more than once a month, you’ll probably look and feel a lot better.

There are a several Cheetah Gym locations in the city and each gym has its charm. The Andersonville gym boasts a waterfall with a fishie pond, Edgewater’s studios are extra spacious, and the North Avenue location’s juice and snack bar is extra nice.

If you suffer from chronic pain, are working on physical therapy after a sports injury (or any injury), if you’re overweight or just unhappy, a little — or a lot of — exercise is probably exactly what you need. Probably more than another Tylenol.

Go to your doctor, sure, but never underestimate the power of moving your butt off the couch and onto a squat machine, an elliptical trainer, or a yoga mat.

Bye, bye, Hurty.

Metaphorically, your body needs chocolate. You push it through closing CTA doors, you squeeze it into jeans that might not be roomy enough, you forget to feed it or feed it too much, etc.

If part of what ails you involves your toenails (and not in a fungal way), or your hair, or your aching back, get down to Chocolate For Your Body and soak in the improvements. Manicures, pedicures, massages, facials, waxing treatments — it’s all here in a spacious, aesthetically pleasing spa environment. Actual chocolate may or may not be included, so be sure to bring your own rations.

You’re tight. In England, that means you’re drunk. Around here, “tight” means you’re stiff and all bunched up and need a massage.

It also means that you’ll be shelling out upwards of 90 bucks for that rubdown, unless you head over to the New School for Massage Bodywork and Healing, where you can get those shoulders all melty for around $55.

Students give you your massage, but you’re in good hands — literally. The school is one of the best of its kind and the instructors know their stuff. You can pay for a massage from one of them, if you’re interested, which only cost slightly more.

Discounts are available for repeat customers and just think: You’re sort of donating your newly relaxed back to science, at least for an hour or so.
