Supportive healing techniques, focused on the client
W
hen self-care is the goal, the most important element is you. The techniques provided by a trained therapist are most effective when you, the client, feel informed and at ease.
In a cozy suite in Oak Park, Worthy Bodywork & Healing welcomes all who seek relief from stress and pain. Since Worthy’s opening in 2024, its focus has been on meeting clients’ needs and building treatment plans for measurable results. Ronen Kohn, the owner and sole practitioner, is trained in both Shiatsu and Reiki. Shiatsu is a hands-on bodywork treatment with benefits for a range of physical and emotional troubles. It can also benefit internal systems aiding in digestion, sleep, and more. Pressure can be adjusted to your needs, from featherlight to bone-deep.

“This was my first experience with Shiatsu after years of standard massages at Massage Envy … Ronen was gentle, attentive and instructive. I was surprised how many pain points we found on my body. I felt relaxed and peaceful afterwards…” – Dahlia Ghabour
Finding Joy in Your Movement Journey with Support from Lively Athletics
T
he New Year arrives with a quiet invitation: to begin again. It’s a time when goals feel fresh, motivation feels lighter, and possibility seems closer than ever. But the most meaningful resolutions aren’t about becoming someone else—they’re about becoming more fully you. True progress starts with honoring who you are right now. Whether your goal is to move more, try a new activity, or simply feel better in your body, joy should be at the center of the journey. Movement doesn’t have to be rigid or intimidating. It can be playful, curious, and personal. A walk that clears your mind, a workout that challenges you, or a new class that pushes you outside your comfort zone—all of it counts. Trying new things helps us grow, and finding joy in movement helps us stay
consistent. At Lively Athletics, we believe your goals deserve the right support. From high-quality shoes and athletic apparel to refueling essentials and recovery tools, we’re here for every step of your journey—and beyond. No matter your age, activity level, or goals, we offer products for the whole family, because everyone deserves to feel strong, supported, and confident. Shopping locally means more than convenience—it means connection. When you shop at Lively Athletics, you’re not just buying gear; you’re gaining a community that wants to see you succeed. This New Year, set goals that feel good, move in ways that bring you joy, and let us help you achieve what’s next.
