After a few year absence, I floated on New Year’s Eve. it was like riding a bike and I got right back into it. Within a few minutes, I was able to allow myself to escape into the peace the float provides. The new float room is awesome. And it was great seeing Eva again!!! More...

Mark my husband came to try the hour floatation water tank experience here . I enjoyed the hour of the hot sauna and shower next door room ! It is a great way for releasing stress toxins out of working nonstop the past 6 days w/ traveling I do often ! I don’t listen to classical music a lot ,,but had an open mind and relaxed off any iPhone technology for once , lol .. The time to relax here is worth it and not crowded w/ a lot of clients . Thank you to Ala working on a Sunday afternoon to accommodate us today ! I recommend anyone in Northbrook IL or anyone like us who like to escape Chicago sometimes ! They also have free parking .

Excellent facility, very calming and the staff is very professional. Conveniently located for the north suburbs. The float tanks themselves are of higher quality than commonly found. I did two floats and can't say enough good about the Chicago Stress Relief Center. Of course anyone who has a good experience becomes a walking advert for the company so I can't stop telling people about it.**It seems the Groupon offer is only accepted for new customers. Really sad because that is the only was i can afford this luxury** if you can shell out $80 per visit (still not a bad price and they have a membership club)this is a great spot. More...

Yesterday I had one of the worst pain days ever. I did a 60 minute float and am feeling so much better. The float tank was very relaxing. I even fell asleep for a little while. I will be back soon! More...

The float + massage combo is amazing! You feel like a wet noodle when you leave this place. With all the stress going on in the world, these healing sessions have become increasingly important to allow my body and mind to rest and restore. I highly recommend you treat yourself. You deserve it! More...

I finally decided to do a float and I was pleasantly surprised. I wish I had done this sooner! The float, the staff, and the environment were fantastic! Dr. Weissman has created something special. I'm going to do it again! Thank you! More...

I have been to the Chicago stress relief center, I can't give it 5 star yet as we have a long journey ahead of us, after the journey is complete I will update the review, so far I have met with the dr 3 times and he is coming up with a plan for my treatment, seems at chicago stress relief center they take the time to understand you and the issues you face before changing anything, I hope that by taking the time to understand me individually will help them make the most informed decision possible, so for now it's 4 star, I'm almost 100% certain by the time my journey is almost concluded it will be a 5 star! !! Thank to all the staff and drs!!! Anyone there is completely professional and extremely nice people which is a nice break from the every day world and some of the a$$>8"/ that we live among More...

An amazing place to float! They have 2 large Ocean Float Rooms now, which provide an awesome float environment. I've floated in over 25 float centers in the past 6 years and in many styles of float tanks, and the Ocean Room is still my favorite tank to float in, and the Chicago Stress Relief Center still once of my favorite places to float. The staff are very kind, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about float therapy. The space is warm, welcoming and very clean. I haven't done any of the other services here, but I can imagine that they are top notch as well. Anytime I'm in the Chicago/Northbrook area, I do my best to make a visit to The Chicago Stress Relief Center. Thank you all for providing one of the best spots in the Chicagoland to float! More...

CiCi gave me an excellent massage! I suffer from chronic headaches, so she focused on my neck, head, and shoulders. She also worked on knots I hold at my shoulder blades. I prefer light pressure and CiCi used the the right amount of pressure to relieve the tension without causing pain. She has a wonderful demeanor.I enjoyed my float very much. The receptionist was very thorough with her directions and I felt completely prepared for beginning the experience. The tank is beautiful and the lighting options ensured I didn't feel trapped. After the first 10 minutes, I was comfortable with total darkness. My mind simply drifted during the float and my body completely relaxed. The Epsom salt is very healing so my skin felt wonderful afterwards.I will definitely be back for another massage and float! More...

I have now been there twice and it's the best way to spend a few hours. As a new mom I am in a constant state of sleep deprivation and when away from my little guy some anxiety. After a float and a massage I felt more rested than I have in months. I can't wait to go back (hoping that's what my hubby gets me for my birthday this year)Thanks for an awesome day!! More...

I LOVE the calming space at The Chicago Relief Center and the Floatation experience is absolutely rejuvenating-I feel as if I've had a massage and slept for 8 hours after an hour float. An incredible gem in the suburbs!

What do you love most about your job?
I received my doctorate when I was 28 years old and can honestly say, I made a great choice. I believe I was meant to help people who are hurting, scared and struggling. I love helping people see their challenges and stresses from a new perspective and have tools and skills that shift the most dark and saddened people.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Early on I worked for several different psychological and counseling practices and quickly learned that there are several ways of running a business that are people and service oriented. My intention was to offer a holistic based menu of services that were financially reachable for everyone. I have been training doctoral students within my practice for years and also offer a sliding scale fee for those that are in need.
Why should our clients choose you?
We care! We are unique. We provide an individualized assessment of the stress and challenges that are not just impacting your mind but assess the impact on your body. A holistic based mind body approach allows for each individual to understand themselves more completely and find natural solutions to their stress response before kicking the can down the road with medications. We also use applied kinesiology to assess if natural herbs, homeopathy, vitamin and other supplements aimed at increasing immune function and overall health are needed.
