Curative Hands 2025
Ron is a powerful Healer, Master of the Body. It's not just a
massage, it's healing on all levels.-- Mila
I was gifted my first session with Ron and as a birthday present
from friends. It was the best gift they could have given me. Not
only did I receive the best massage I have been given, but I felt
Ron understood that I was there not only for a great massage,
but as self care for myself, and made the experience second to
none. For starters, the ambiance was peaceful. I felt immediately
calm when in his presence. Followed by a massage that made
me feel like Ron had figured out my daily routine and what
muscles I work too hard and which ones not enough. It was a
massage tailored to me without me having to say what I
needed. What else could you ask for? It made my brain and
body happy. Fast forward to today where I felt like I could lift
stronger and run faster. Ron is a master in body manipulation
in all the right ways.
I will be back! — Liz R.
Ron is magical..., he is extremely knowledgeable and talented, i
didn’t want my massage to end. His techniques are unique and
helpful. He incorporated stretches to give me better range of
motion. He found, and worked on areas of my body that i didn’t
even know needed it. I will definitely book with Ron again -happy

Ron possesses miraculous healing hands! with an extensive
background as a seasoned massage therapist, he exudes and
exceptional level of attentiveness, care and generosity with his
time. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly endorse him and highly
recommend his services to anyone seeking a truly remarkable
experience. — Maggie W.
I got myself a massage at Curative hands for my birthday & it
was SPECTACULAR! A true full body massage with a recognition
of where I held stress in my body & was tense. Ron is a gifted
masseuse who has a unique combination of skills and
experience. Ron listens and has the utmost respect for his
client(s). I highly recommend Ron's Curative Hands massage. If
you are in the greater Chicago area, check it out; spectacular
service for a spectacular value. — Chrystal
Selfishly, I want to keep Ron and his incredible abilities to myself
but that wouldn’t be to fair to the world!
I met Ron years ago while he was working at another massage
therapy place and I had the foresight to ask for his card. He left,
establishing his own business and I will never lose his number.
Ron is extremely intuitive, knowing exactly the areas I need extra
attention and works with such patience to relax my muscles. He
also understands the body and helps me increase my range of
motion in a gentle, yet effective manner, leaving me feeling
relaxed and aligned. His gentle tone and firm touch lulls me into
a relaxing state, which is much needed. The end of my massage
sessions leaves me feeling as if I have spent hours relaxing and
reconnecting with my mind, body, and soul. — Alena M.
I’m not a stranger to massage, but this was my first 90 minute.
Beautiful setting for the massage. I trusted and was at ease with
Ron immediately. He was very respectful and explained things
well. He explained our body is 360 degrees and I love that he
had me lie on my sides, during the massage. I’ve never done
that in a massage before. I was sore in a few areas from a
previous workout and he handled those areas wonderfully. I felt
so much better! He was very thorough with the massage and I
was beyond relaxed at the end. I found the pressure of the
massage perfect. I definitely will come back and I live about 90
minutes away. Definitely worth the drive! — Shelley
I have been to Ron for both one-on-one personal training and
massages. His positive attitude and passion for wellness is
evident and contagious. Best massage you will ever receive!! Ron
is truly incredibly at what he does. He listens to your exact needs
and goes above and beyond on spots that are extra painful. I
saw him while I was pregnant and postpartum. He was great
help during my aches and pains of pregnancy and healing
postpartum. Truly wonderful person and cares about his
clients!! Thank you for everything, Ron!

I found Ron just browsing Google and needed short notice
massage for terrible back pain. He was super responsive and
scheduled me same day in the afternoon. Amazing! He runs
promotions once in a while via text that are definitely worth it!
Not only is this the best experience (I can’t say it’s just a
massage..it’s so much more) but he ends up being way more
affordable than other spas if you go more than once. I’m
hooked.
-first visit- I did the 120 minutes therapeutic massage. Let me tell
you, he worked the hell out of my body! Stretches and
massaging on all sides. I didn’t even know I had hip pain until I
somehow felt better the next day. Ron knows what he’s doing
and can feel any little thing in your body that needs extra
attention.
- second visit- I did 150 minutes and this time I just really
needed to relax and distress. I was tense, tired, stressed and my
face hurt due to sinus pressure and migraine. I just texted him
that i basically wanted to be “comatose “ by the end. Ron
curated an experience that was just perfect. Totally different
from the first time .
I appreciate that he really listens to what you need and every
time you go it’ll be a one of a kind experience.
— Mirela A
Ron is professional, drove 40 miles to get his magic massage.
Highly recommend. Olzhas S
By far the best massage I’ve ever had. Ron knew exactly what
type of pressure my body needed to release the tension. He
made sure to communicate with me as needed also. He was
professional and took his time to make sure my experience was
the best ever. I will definitely be going back to him in the future!
— Lisa A
Great attention to detail. He asked loads of questions and
tailored the session to my needs. I’ve had 9 surgeries and
massage has been part of my recovery for all of them. I’ve been
to several providers over the years, and this was the best first
session I’ve ever had. Normally it takes a little time to establish
your problem issues and the right techniques and pressures.
Ron seemed like I had been visiting him for years. He asks loads
of questions to properly asses and fix your issues. If you’re
looking to get some problem areas addressed instead of just
zoning out and relaxing, this is the guy for you. — Anonymous
‘I have enjoyed all the massage sessions from Ron. He always
starts the session by asking how I feel and if any part of my
body hurts… then applies the massage to effectively help me
relax. I am a runner… his massage consistently helps me run
extra miles or speedy recovery from long distance running. In
addition, he provides beautiful music and essential oil to make
the whole experience very enjoyable. Highly recommend
everyone to try! — Qing..
‘I am an ex pro baseball player (pitcher) with chronic shoulder
and lower back pain. One of the best things that happened to
me this year was working with Ron. Ron has been a key reason
in the betterment of my muscular health. He is totally capable,
prepared and professional. My experience with his massage
treatments has been fantastic and he has my utmost respect
that I’m in great hands. I highly recommend Ron if you’re in
need of a great therapeutic massage that focuses on long term
health improvements. Thank you Ron. — Beto…’
‘Ron is a great massage therapist. He is very attuned to the body
and knew exactly the areas that needed to be focused on. I
appreciate his dedication to knowing what your goals are and
working hard to get you relief. Also, i like how he explains his
different techniques and his purpose behind it. I’ve
recommended Ron to many friends in the past and continue to
do so. — Gina …’
‘Ron is a true healer. With a touch, he is able to tell which areas
of the body are particularly stressed and why. He goes above
and beyond to make it a truly valuable experience.” —
Michelle...’,
‘Ron gave me a great whole body massage, concentrating on
my shoulders and upper back, which tend to be quite tight from
all the computer work I do. He also guided me through a series
of stretches to loosen up my hip joints and lower back, since I
have episodes of sciatica pain now and then. Ron has a
cheerful, open personality with a good sense of humor. —

‘What I really appreciated in Ron was that he really listened to
what I was saying, regarding my needs. — Anonymous …’
‘Ron was amazing at finding that spot that was the source of
my discomfort. He was very attentive regarding pressures,
careful draping made me comfortable and relax. He worked
with PNF stretch on me, and afterward, I felt wonderful and
could breathe more easily since my chest wasn’t so tight. Thank
you! — Kaori…
I had a 90 minute massage yesterday after giving 29 hours of
massage myself for the week. I will definitely be going back to
get more self care from Ron. He has great hands and I felt
amazing after his massage. Thanks again! — Heather T..
Perfect adjustment of pressure & just knowing what was needed
— Cheryl
I really appreciated how Ron not only gave a great massage, but
was giving me tips and stretching advice to do at home to assist
with my pain. — Anonymous
Ron listened to my concerns, problem areas and then did a
great job finding the source of the pain, working through the
issue and educating me on steps I can take on my own to
alleviate the pain.— Gini
I am currently in the recovery stage of hip surgery and Ron was
able to customize our session to my limited needs. His
understanding of the human body and his excellent technique
allowed me to leave with greater range of motion and comfort,
after our session. — Anonymous
Ron was recommended to me by %%%% because Ron
specializes in stretching and self care. During and after the
massage Ron gave many pointers and ways to continue to
stretch at home. Ron is an excellent massage therapist. If you
want someone to assist you in bringing self care methods home
Ron is the person. — Cheryl
Perfect pressure. Amazing massage — Lindsay
Ron was great! I had the best massage ever, I will definitely see
him again. — Laura
Ron's education and skill show through his work. He gave great
pressure in areas needed and he was knowledgeable enough to
know without me telling him to be gentler in others. He
communicated well and listened to everything I asked for in my
intake. I am highly impressed and cant wait for my next session
with him! — Jessica
Ron can read a body very well. I appreciated that he listened to
my concerns and focused on those pain areas. I also really liked
that he approached each muscle from 4 different angles - it
really helped address the pain I was experiencing. Pressure
throughout the massage was perfect.— A.V.
Ron was great! He is def an expert in stretching. I came in with
back pain and carpel tunnel pain and afterwards I could
immediately feel my body feeling better. I would recommend
Ron 100% — Anonymous
I had the best massage of my life here with Ron! I will definitely
be a returning customer. My body felt great and I was very
relaxed after my massage with Ron. Great job! — Laura
Ron has taken the massage experience to a whole new level! His
study of each and every muscle and the precise and direct
intervention to the pin trigger points have been incredible.
Highly recommended if you are looking for a real Massage
Therapy...I now understand why they call it “Clinic”!
Keep up with the good job!. — Luca
Ron has extremely powerful hands that provide him an ability to
find tense spots others can't using their elbows or other means.
Great experience and will definitely be back with Ron when he's
available. — Tom
This was the by far the best massage I have ever had! When you
ask for deep tissue, you are going to get it! I would definitely
recommend Ron to anyone.
— Chuck
My legs and back feel amazing after you worked on me!!! 10/10
will definitely see again!! — Sean

I am stressed and have aching muscles. I asked Ron to find all
the knots and go deep! Was I sorry! It was painful but in good
pain pressure. Communicated well. He gently eases his pressure
to my tolerance level. I thought Ramon was painful but Ron is
equally strong, skillful, and masters at their own rights! He was
able to address my whole body in 90 mins session! Thank you,
Ron! BTW, they can be gentle as well if you request them for
more relaxation. My suggestion, request REALLY deep pressure
(at your tolerance level) and request the last 5-10 minutes with
lighter pressure for a relaxing massage. Kudos to %%%%! —

Helped me understand why I have tension in my bodies and
took time to teach me techniques I can do in my own to relieve
pain is stress on my muscles. — Anabel
I had a great massage from Ron. He is very knowledgeable
about human anatomy and has great massage skills. I
especially liked his joint mobilization and stretching techniques.
And if you like deep tissue massage, Ron is the person to see as
he can apply some SERIOUS deep pressure. — Roberto
Ron was very skilled, professional and caring. Truly made it a
great relaxing experience. I would certainly recommend him to
friends and family. — Anonymous
Ron is incredible. Unlike many of the 'massages' I've gotten at
other places (e.g. airports and spas) Ron really got deep and
addressed the root cause of my issues. He is happy to explain
what he is addressing and was able to get to places that I never
even knew existed. I'd been working in front of a computer for
16 hours a day for the past year and he has helped so much in
alleviating back pain, I feel like my work is going to improve and
my posture is much better. Also he's a great guy and got me
completely comfortable. The location is also taking great COVID
precautions so I had no worries there as well. Signed up for a
subscription! — William
Ron was great!! This was my 4th full body massage in my life &
Ron was the only one who really helped me relax! Very
professional, friendly & took the time to explain the cause of my
pain & how I can help myself relieve it at home. He made me
feel very comfortable & I left very relaxed! Thank you again Ron!
I Will be back soon! — Lidia
Ron was professional and provided a safe environment. He
talked through my issues with me and listened well. He provided
feedback and advice and was understanding. — Carina
Appreciated the knowledge and professionalism. He gave me
some good exercises to do afterwards, which is helpful to help
me continue to get better. — Kristin
Really knowledgeable, gives a great massage, and incorporated
some stretches that I really appreciated. — Sonja
Ron was awesome! Ron knew what he was doing and would
answer questions I had during the massage. When he got to
some more tense spots, he would ask if I was okay from the
heavy breathing and noises I was making, which I appreciated.
Ron has magic hands and was able to really dig deep into the
muscle when needed and knew to go lighter on other body
parts. He even showed me a few neck stretches to do at the very
end. I would definitely choose Ron again when I go for another.
— Alex
This was my second time going and it is worth every second. I
went for a 90 minute massage to relax my body from constant
heavy lifting and to loosen up tightness I knew I had. I think this
experience was even better than the first time. I will definitely
come back and have already told friends and family to get a
massage here too. — Anonymous
I had my first session there with Ron. He was very talented at his
job. I left feeling distressed and completely relaxed. He was able
to tackle knots that had been long time residents in my muscles.
I will be definitely going back again and again. Thanks Ron you
are a amazing massage therapist!!! — Kristy
I made an appointment here with Ron because I was having
some lower back discomfort and tension in my shoulders. If you
work from home, or remotely, you will know the pain I’m talking
about. To start off, the owner of the clinic &&& was extremely
helpful in getting the appointment set up. I was so lucky to be
able to have an appointment within a day or two of contacting
them. I can see why this place is rated so highly because they
are professionals all the way. Very peaceful office, great
communication, and the best massage that I have ever had.
Ron told me everything he was doing, the different muscle
groups, and when to alert him if he wasn't applying enough
pressure, or if it felt like too much. He was kinda funny, too :) I
will definitely be back for more! So glad I found this place! Don’t
wait! Schedule an appointment asap! — Lisa
Athletes needs good massage to recover, period. Ron made me
realize the benefit and the necessity. He navigates the body in
the anatomical way. Generally and persistently. He is a
personal trainer, takes the ownership and go beyond.
Sometimes, he extends the time as he feels need it without
charging. I am very grateful. like the heated bed, heated oil,
scent, light and the total privacy. His attention to details makes
his private studio exceed the big names.
Ron used to work for a clinic. His own studio price is very
reasonable. And all the good perks included, such as essential
oil, while other places charge extra. I thank my friend who
referred me here. Ron’s magic hands is top notch! -- Xiang
I got a 60min therapeutic massage. Best massage ive ever had!
Ron was amazing and knew exactly what i needed and was very
informative. I loved that the first thing he asked when i got there
was where does it hurt and whats going on. He was very
responsive and replied to my messages quickly and fit me in last
minute cause i was in so much pain. Loved the studio, it was so
relaxing. I will definitely be coming back for a 90min massage
next time!-- Rebecca C
Thanks for the massage. Great place and excellent specialist! I
recommend for anyone.-- Mykhailo M
It will be not enough to say "Best massage I ever had" because
what he is doing - gives magical results! I'm Ukrainian and
what is happening in my country keeps me all time stressed. I
definitely see the difference in how my week goes if I had a
massage or if I didn't have one. Even 1 massage in a week plays
huge difference! I had a chance to compare. Weeks are
different, health is different, I react to stress differently, I feel my
body in a different way! I'll say this:
"if you really appreciate your body that is doing so many things
for you just to exist and live life -> you have to do sometimes a
deep tissue massage. I recommend once a week. Your whole
body is working for you every single second. Answer yourself
what you do for your body in answer?
I had an answer for myself - >
I give bad food, hate some parts of my body, sit a lot at work,
if I start work out - I do this quickly to loose weight (which is
stressful way for body) etc... A lot to add. In the end I understood
that I care about my outfits more then I care about my body,
but my body is an outfit for my soul. The smallest thing I can
do in this material life to show love and appreciation is going to
this massage therapist.
He has strong hands - which is perfect for deep tissue. He is
feeling what you need more, personal approach, from toes to
your head and face. It helps me to reduce stress, feel my body,
show appreciation, keep PEACE and LOVE inside myself even
when there is war in my country, problems in relationship and
work with no days off. I was loosing myself in stress, crying and
hating - it was before I started going to massage once a week.
Now it's different. Just look into my eyes, do you feel peace or
hate? Eyes never lie. Before they were empty with lost reason to
live. Best massage therapist ever! I recommend Щиро дякую.--

Ron, it is the best massage therapist, he is amazing in finding
your aches and pains. Leaving you with ease and relax. If you
are looking for the best, you found it. Pio
I learned about Ron from friend. It became interesting for me to
try his service. After 3 months and several sessions, I can say
with confidence that this is the best investment in myself. Ron is
not only a master of his craft, but also a bright person with
good energy. I really like the massage room, nice atmosphere
and very clean. I highly recommend!-- Ekaterina S
One of the best massages I’ve had. Ron is attentive and
intuitive. The facility is really clean and comfortable. Highly
recommend him. If I could give him more than five stars, I
would. Money well spent. I’m due for another appointment! --
