Massage Therapy in Grayslake – Reviews
Dr. Jack helped me so much, I had bad neck pain and had been trying everything. Strongly recommend.
Best Chiropractic office I have ever been to. Dr Jack goes well over and above to figure out your research and help you repair it.
Jack is the very best at what he does. He’s informed, and knowledgeable, and made me feel like a brand new $100 bill during my visit. Thank you, Jack!
I would strongly recommend Dr Peyton from Cross up Chiropractic. She offered a very comprehensive evaluation. She asked questions about my medical history to help her evaluate how to best support my needs. I wish I would have taken notes since I learned so much from her as she talked through symptoms and outcomes. I left with a number of action steps that I could implement to support and strengthen my neck and back. She is very knowledgeable. I'm so thankful that I found her practice.
Great chiropractor who works in various areas including acupuncture.
Dr. Peyton is so great and accommodating! First of all, she has explored several ways to help with pain and discomfort. I also appreciate how she will educate you on techniques and anatomy before administering care. I always feel better after my adjustments when i leave there. Second, she has been incredibly accommodating of my needs as a new mom. I don’t have childcare yet, but she lets me bring my daughter to our sessions. She goes above and beyond by engaging with my baby. For example, today she finished feeding her and cleaned off a toy that was dropped on the floor because I couldn’t get off the table mid treatment. Amazing level of compassion and support that allows me to seek treatment without childcare.
The nicest most genuine people there are as well as professional! Let alone such amazing work they do! Dr. Jack has helped me multiple times with several different areas! He helped relieve my lower back pain in a few days, two weeks before I had a competition. His vast knowledge truly works wonders. I highly recommend this practice!
Dr. Jack is the best! Super knowledgeable and efficient. He has saved my back several times. So glad I found him!
Amazing work! They know exactly what you need and how to handle any issues/injury without judgment. Kindness all around. I will always promote both Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton
Dr. Jack Rieke improved my range of motion dramatically in one session. I had fallen down a step on a spike grated platform. The multiple punctures had mostly healed, but I could only bend my knee 90 degrees. Dr. Jack also treated my neck, upper back and ankle that were injured as well as improved the motion of knee to almost full range of motion. He spent more time than expected responding to each area of concern making a huge difference in my ability to move without pain! I highly recommend this practice for anyone looking to improve their mobility.
I saw Dr. Peyton Habenicht-Rieke for neck/back pain. She completed an extremely thorough history of my health, including past pains and current. She provided education on why I may be having this pain and went into depth on her plan to help me gain mobility and relief from her treatment. I was also provided suggestions and exercises on what I could do to relieve pain in between visits. I look forward to future sessions as I feel her knowledge and skills will provide an improved overall health for my body, versus something temporary.
Dr Peyton is awesome. She made me feel comfortable knowing that I have not been to a Chiropractor in years. My visits are helping me with my lower back & neck pain. Only 2 visits so far and I feel amazing. The information she provides me is so informative. I am so grateful to her and I will continue to go back. Body is feeling so much better.
The owner Jack is a highly educated and passionate Dr. He puts in a lot of time and patience to try to develop a plan that will help rehabilitate his patients. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you're looking to feel better and develop better foundational solutions to your pain / ailments relating to his services offered.
Dr. Jack’s always knows just what to do. I'm always relieved when I leave.
As always excellent treatment. Very attentive , professional and great results
Dr. Jack is an excellent practitioner and well schooled in the mechanics and physics of the body. One treatment and I feel much better.
I had my first appointment with Dr. Peyton today and already know my care is in the right hands. I will be working with her on my chiropractic needs and fertility acupuncture. She is knowledgeable, kind and genuinely cares.
Ok. So the doctor knows his stuff, and willing to share it on a level that means something. Took care of the worst pain and numbness to my right leg I have ever had. The exercise routine he has given me, will change my muscle issues for the better and I believe, how I will age.So, now my left leg was acting. No injury. Hoping it would go away on its own. He treated it, tuned an exercise to address the issue for the future. Feeling better after one day! Getting older is rough. I'm glad I have Dr. Reicke to help me along!
Dr. Jack is very professional, knowledgeable and is a phenomenal human being.His staff and office are very inviting.I highly recommend this chiropractor. I’ve been to quite a few, but I drive to 2 1/2 hours to get to him.When I leave, I’m leaving with exercise and feeling like a new person.Can’t wait for my next visit!
Great service, walked in hurting and left feeling great. Jack always knows how to get you moving and feeling better awesome chiropractor.
Had a amazing experience at Cross-Up! Got to work with Dr. Rieke on my sciatic pain and was thrilled to see the improvement in my symptoms after just a couple visits! He is very thorough with his care and I leave learning much more than I went in with. Highly recommend this office!
Hands down the best chiropractor I’ve ever been to!!! Dr Jack is very knowledgeable and always thinks outside the box. His adjustments are so much more than the average chiropractor. He knows what areas to target to help get maximum relief! I have improved so much in a few sessions and am doing so much better each day!
Dr. Peyton is amazing. Very compassionate and knowledgeable. You owe it to yourself to make an appointment with her.
I just started seeing Dr Peyton Habenicht. Initially went in just for regular chiro/adjustments but she's providing so much more.She working on my knee issues, and tight quad/hamstrings. Plus she has given me strengthening exercises to do at home between visits. Plus the adjustments. She does manual adjustments which I prefer.Office/staff is really nice. Dr is really knowledgeable, friendly, and so good! Looking forward to having acupuncture at some point too.Highly recommend.
Dr. Peyton ROCKS!!! She was able to figure out a lower back/hip pain quickly and she put a therapy plan together that showed immediate results!! Thank you very much! 10 out of 10!!
Dr Rieke is so good at what he does. The ART (what I go for) is the best therapy I have had. His verbal explanation while using his technique makes me understand what is going on and how I can help myself on a regular basis.
I have very bad back pain and saw Dr Jack for the first time and he was able to start working right away and I go some immediate relief. I understand it is still a work in progress but it was so nice to find someone that could actually help me. I tried physical therapy, injections, nothing was working. Thanks so much.
Dr. Jack is fantastic. I’ve gone in sporadically for lower back pain and with his treatment and stretches, I’m always so much better when I leave. He takes his time, really listens, and is so knowledgeable. It’s great that he gives me stretches to do at home to keep my back from acting up.
Dr. Jack’s expertise has been very helpful fixing and promoting healing for my sciatica problem. I started seeing him in early September following an injury in August that was significantly painful and had caused restricted mobility for weeks. My former longtime PT left the state a few years ago and I went to Dr. Jack with a high recommendation from my husband.Dr. Jack is kind, upbeat, very knowledgeable, and he has been extremely integral in helping me get through this physical issue.The office is modern, clean, and well-equipped. Staff is very friendly and efficient. I highly recommend Cross-Up Chiropractic!
Dr. Jack has been helping me with my wrist and knows what he's doing. So refreshing after dealing with other doctors just sending my around for x-rays, 5 minute discussions and surgery with no guarantees.
Dr. Jack & Dr. Peyton are the best in town. Dr. Jack takes him time, listens and helps get to the root of the issues. I came into the office for the first time thinking I would just get a quick adjustment, but it also included stretching, exercises & treatment! These doctors genuinely care about getting you better. I highly recommend this practice. A+++
I absolutely LOVE this center and Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton. Our whole family goes here. Let me just say that, while I have worked with wonderful chiropractors in the past, there isn't anyone that is as comprehensive as Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton are. One recent example, I came in for an adjustment and complained of feeling sleepy and not having the clearest head. Dr. Jack analyzed and had me do a few head movements to reset (something dealing with inner ear) and my head cleared up within 2 minutes. Other recent examples - I had headaches and Dr. Jack did a TMJ adjustment that made them go away. My son had a forearm injury, Dr. Jack stepped up with Occupational Therapy. My wife is raving about Dr. Payton for help with her issues. My shoulder was hurt and Dr. Jack fixed it, etc. etc. etc. They truly are the best place to go if you're in need of a chiropractor, acupuncture, physical therapy, or nutrition. Every time I get more and more impressed. If you're in Libertyville, Vernon Hills (like I am), Mundelein, or any of the surrounding area - you really should check them out! Thank you Dr. Jack and Dr. Payton!!!
Dr. Rieke displayed a great depth of knowledge regarding my back issue. He gave me some exercises that appear to be working. Treatment is ongoing, but I'm optimistic He appears to be both competent and confidant.
After calling Dr. Rieke, while in immense pain with my IT Band injury, he gave me immediate instructions about how to stabilize my injury at home until my appointment the very next morning. Once in his office, Dr. Rieke alleviated the majority of my pain during the very first visit (I crawled in, and was actually able to walk out.) He spent about an hour with me and throughout the entire visit explained the dynamics behind his methodology. It really helped to be educated about my condition which allowed me to better understand the road to recovery. Can't thank Dr. Jack enough for his knowledge and expertise – along with his compassionate bedside manner. He's a real pro!
Totally beyond my expectations. Friendly welcoming, clean and classy. Dr. Jack is knowledgeable and doesn’t miss a detail. Great asset to Libertyville.
The doctors here research nutrition, active release technique and LISTEN to the patient in our family. The doctors take time to communicate with the patient to understand the patient's health situation. The doctors ask the patient for feedback and use their knowledge to adapt treatment accordingly. I highly recommend!
Dr Rieke was fabulous. He took the time to thoroughly review and discuss my history, asked lots of questions and really listened. His assessment included asking fur my feedback on pain, discomfort and the like. This helped him determine what was happening and what treatment was called for. I look forward to continuing our work together.
I wish I could rate more than 5 stars! I do not submit reviews often but Cross-Up Chiropractic is hands down the best Chiropractic office I have ever been to. They are the most caring doctors who listen to their patients and create plans that will fix the issue(s) long term and not put a bandaid on them. Dr. Peyton has helped me overcome injuries that I thought I would have to live in pain for the rest of my life. I always leave my appointments feeling like a new person! At every appointment I have she continues to educate me on why my pains are occurring and how we will be fixing them for a long term. She has introduced me to acupuncture, cupping and nutrition! My healthy and body are in a completely different place from where I was 4 months ago and I owe it all to Dr. Peyton! I cannot say enough amazing things about her!
I was referred to Dr. Reike by a friend and I’m so happy I was. I’m a chronic pain patient with extenuating circumstances. In only two visits I have more mobility than I’ve had in 13 years!At your first opportunity, give them a call and make an appointment, you’ll be glad you did!
I am so satisfied with my visits..My neck pain was severe stabbing and after one session that ceased. My hands are working so much better...the swelling on the side of my left wrist is almost gone. The pain in my hands has left and I can even open a jar at dinner time with no problem That wasn't the case before. I can turn left and right in the car without bad pain. I am completely happy with my results I look foward to more help in maintaining this stabilized move forward. Thanks to Dr. Rieke my long months of pain will be in the past.
I’ve been dealing with sacroiliac back pain from a back injury two years ago. One appointment with Dr. Jack helped minimize my pain immediately! I’ve treated the injury with both massages and physical therapy, and this treatment was equally as beneficial.
Outstanding experience, solving pain from a pinched nerve after 3 doctors and several MRI’s and pain meds over nearly 10 months, all with no solution until I came here!
Jack was amazing with my daughter. He spent a lot of time with her and was thorough and explained everything he did and why. He is also very knowledgeable and skilled. The whole experience was positive.
Dr. Jack is absolutely fabulous! He took his time with me, was extremely professional and explained everything he was doing! Would definitely recommend! Thanks for fixing my back Jack! Lol
Dr. Peyton Habenicht worked with me for over two hours for my first session and adjustment. She was thorough & informed me of more details regarding my injury. I really enjoyed that she taught me PT exercises that I can do from home to help speed my recovery. From the first phone conversation I could tell that she is informed & she listened to all of my concerns. If you are hesitant to see a chiropractor, don’t worry, with Dr. Peyton you are in good hands. I can see her passion and commitment to her profession. Also she charges fairly & this is refreshing. I highly recommend her!!!
Dr. Peyton and Dr. Jack are amazing! I would not go to or recommend anyone else!
Amazing first session with immediate results! THANK YOU Dr. Peyton Habenicht! Looking forward to more sessions!

Meet Our Massage Therapist Grayslake
Massage Therapist Michael Alilovich
Massage Therapy Specialist
My foray into massage therapy started around seven years prior to me actually taking classes to become certified. I played hockey most of my life and would always be a little sore after taking some hits or blocking shots. I researched ways to manage my injuries and discovered some self-massage techniques. Eventually, other players on my teams wanted me to work on them. It seemed like I had a natural knack for it as everybody was noticing improvements in their range of motion and recovery. You can image my surprise when I later learned in school what I did was not just placebo. The body responds great when we show it some appreciation.
Massage Therapist Grayslake – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is a therapeutic massage?
A therapeutic massage is a type of bodywork designed to relieve pain, reduce stress, and work on specific problem areas within the body. It involves the manipulation of the body’s soft tissues, including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, and ligaments. Techniques used can range from long, smooth strokes to more focused, deep tissue work, depending on the client’s needs and the therapist’s approach. The goal is to enhance physical and emotional well-being, promote relaxation, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
How much does a massage cost in Grayslake?
The cost of massage depends on the extent of care and time of services. Prices for some services are shown in the table below.
|
Grayslake Massage Therapy |
Price,$ |
|---|---|
| 1 Hour Massage – 50 minutes hands on work | $75 |
| 1 and a half hour Massage – 70 minute hands on work | $110 |
What are the benefits of massage therapy?
Massage therapy offers numerous benefits, including:
- Pain Relief: Alleviates chronic pain and muscle tension.
- Stress Reduction: Promotes relaxation and reduces stress levels.
- Improved Circulation: Enhances blood flow for better oxygen and nutrient delivery.
- Increased Flexibility: Improves range of motion and muscle flexibility.
- Boosted Immune System: Supports immune function by stimulating the lymphatic system.
- Better Sleep: Promotes deeper and more restful sleep.
- Enhanced Emotional Well-being: Reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression.
- Faster Injury Recovery: Accelerates healing by reducing inflammation and promoting tissue regeneration.
Does insurance cover massage in Grayslake?
In specific insurance plans it is covered. Most often this type of service is considered maintenance care and would fall in the uncovered category. Contact your health insurance provider to learn more about your plan. Fortunately we provide these services at an affordable rate that is often more cost effective than insurance deductibles.
How often should i get a massage?
It is ideal to see a massage therapist every two through four weeks. Less than two weeks is rarely beneficial for recovery.
What to wear to a massage in Grayslake?
What you wear for a massage visit depends on your personal comfort level and the type of massage you’re receiving. Here are some general guidelines:
Comfortable Clothing: Many massage therapists recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing to your appointment. This makes it easier to undress and dress again after the massage. You might wear items like yoga pants, sweatpants, or athletic shorts, along with a T-shirt or tank top.
Sheets and gowns provided for privacy: Some people prefer to wear underwear during their massage for modesty or comfort reasons. However, if you’re comfortable, you can choose to undress completely. Rest assured, professional massage therapists are trained to drape you with a sheet or towel to ensure your privacy and comfort at all times.
Remove Jewelry and Accessories: It’s a good idea to remove any jewelry, watches, or accessories before your massage session. This allows the massage therapist to work more effectively without any interference or risk of damage to your belongings.
Ultimately, the most important thing is to wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and relaxed during your massage. Your massage therapist will ensure your privacy and dignity are respected throughout the session, regardless of what you choose to wear.
