It is very diffcult locating a professional massage therapist with the knowledge of sports injuries and treating tendon & muscle ache. Especially if you are a male athlete, seeking a licensed male therapist on the northside that is professional & non-sexual. I did a search on City Search and saw ENERGIZE and decided to click on Anthony website. Quite impressive/professional. I decide to give this guy a call and just by the conversation I knew I had found my massage therapist. Anthony is a avid sports fan so if you are into baseball, football, and have the basic jock injuries, he is you guy, he played college ball. The rates are very reasonable, His 85 min. Athletic combo package is the best, great deep tissue & reflexology.Plus receiving a free gym bag after the session, WOW what a promo for new clients, Did not have a gym bag & I really needed one. The fact he is very caring for his clients and just getting tokens gifts, even the high class establishment spa's can't even give away a free pencil. I like the home base office, the room is very relaxing, & after you fill out client info. form, Anthony goes over ever detail deciding on the best therapeutic treatment. You are not rush. I will be a regular client. If you are serious in working out, training and need your own personal massage therapist, call this guy and save yourself a headache .

Pros: Expert is Sports, Deep Tissue, stretch therapy, Never had a steam facial, but I will from this point on, Andersonville is a great area, a good beer after your massage will complete your day

Cons: Call early, Friday & Saturdays are diffcult, Anthony works for himself and is in demand this time of year, I highly recommed calling early to RSVP

I did not know how hard it would be to seek a male licensed sports therapist on the northside would be. I am a active athlete and train at least 3 times a week. I have a personal trainer who suggested that I seek a personal massage therapist with knowledge of Sports/Muscle-Tendon therapy. Seems easy especially with all the health clubs in Lakeview & Lincoln Park. In Health clubs the therapist mostly give swedish massage, many know that Deep Tissue, Sports massage takes a lot of work & energy and refuse to do this therapy. I am a muscular guy and take harder deep tissue. I had seen ENERGIZE on the internet and read ANthony's reviews and thought I would give him a try. The conversation was professional, his rates are reasonable, and the 85 min. Sports/Deep Tissue was the best, very strong hands & elbow therapy. I like the home office atmosphere, very relaxing and he is a total sports fan, I think we talked Cubs/Sox & Bears for about 1/2 hour, he knows his sports. Anthony is a ex jock/Trainer so it was so refreshing to explain what was hurting and he knew the problem of my hamstring & lumbar back problem. His qualification are in full view. He also did a yoga/thai stretch on my back that cracked and my god the pain disappeared.Anthony is a family man like myself, not to many straight male therapist on the northside that is licensed or even played any sports. After the session, and i knew I had finally found my personal therapist, he suggest the VIP massage package. I also got a gym bag which I really needed and did not expect nothing of that quality. This Guy knows how to run a true massage business of total standards and puts the clients needs first, now that's rare!!!! For you male athlete's who seek a personal massage therapist, Give Energize & Anthony a try, you will not be disappointed

Pros: Highly Professional, Expert in Sports, Deep Tissue, Muscle Stretch, Clean.relax atmosphere, Finally a male licensed sports massage therapist on the northside who is straight

Cons: Word is getting around about Energize & Anthony, Saturday are very busy, he is in high demand, Call early to reserve,
