Stretch

Yoga RoomThere is nothing better than a good stretch before sitting into the cramped seats of an airplane. O’Hare offers passengers a tranquil space to relax, unwind and stretch in the free yoga room. O’Hare was one of the first airports to offer this wellness facility to its passengers and many other airports have followed suit. With floor to ceiling mirrors and frosted glass windows the space is open and inviting and bathed in natural light. The yoga room is open every day from 06:00 to 22:00. There are lots of stretch and yoga tutorials you can follow in the Sanctifly app and none of them require equipment or very much space. You can find them over on the ‘Videos’ tab. Located on the Mezzanine Level of the Terminal 3 Rotunda.
