Ruby Room
Description
It’s a healing sanctuary, a spa, an elixir bar, a yoga studio, a crystal bar, a hair salon, a meditation studio, an educational laboratory, an apothecary and a makeup-to-lifestyle-products retail space all rolled into one 10,000-square-foot space. Ruby Room, located in Wicker Park and easily recognizable by its red double doors, recently reopened in the newly minted category of outside-in rejuvenating venues known as the “spa of the spirit.” Besides its size, the biggest difference between Ruby Room and most other spas is that its treatments skew more to your energetic system with such offerings as intuitive-energy healing, chakra cleansing, crystal-energy healing and astrology. Owner Kate Leydon may have created a spa dynasty, and from the briskness of business here, it looks like she has plenty of followers.
