The Fix Massage + Wellness

First let me start by saying I’ve tried lots of different massage places and types of massage, and have several friends in the biz also. This gives me a unique perspective on the craft. Based on this, I can honestly say that the Fix is without a doubt one of the best in its field, and the owner is one who knows her craft. Where do I start? First, Jeannie (the owner) is a gem: she truly listens to you, and really cares about you and your overall health – not just what she offers in her massage studio – and without any upsell! Last week was my first time and I was so impressed by the total professionalism with a caring touch! The massage was very relaxing and I hope to be back soon!!!

Jeannie is absolutely amazing. Not only does she take the time to get to know your body, and if you had/​have any areas that need special attention, she takes the time to get to know you. I’m usually not one to talk much during massages, but her company was so pleasant, I know I left there with a new friend as well as a new masseuse. Not to mention she knows what she is doing! She explained everything she was doing and how it would benefit my body. Although the office is a bit tricky to find, inside it is such a calming and inviting atmosphere. I loved Jeannie and The Fix– I will definitely be going back!

I went for the first time having found The Fix on Groupon. I have never had a massage before and Jeannie seemed to have very high reviews. Although The Fix is a little difficult to locate and does not look like much from the outside, it was amazing and I will definitely be returning. Jeannie is amazing at what she does and you can tell she really cares about helping people relax and heal their bodies. She was also very personable and took an interest in me. From the beginning, she was super accommodating with scheduling, getting me in the very next day. Also, she never got an attitude about me using a GroupOn, whereas many vendors do. Overall, super relaxing and positive experience. I will most definitely be returning and highly recommend her for anyone in need of a fix! Thanks Jeannie!

I bought a Gilt City deal for a much needed massage. Jeannie was great and paid special attention to my problem areas. She had another deal that I took advantage of so I’m seeing her again this Friday for a sports massage! Definitely recommend!

I don’t write Unilocal reviews often, but I have to after my massage with Jeannie.
I’ve had quite a few massages with other therapists in the past, but I am definitely sticking to Jeannie from now on.
Her massage room is cozy and very clean. I have a long time lower back injury and am always looking for therapists who know what they are doing.
Jeannie was great! She asked me before we started what was going on with my body. I felt like she listened to what I said and tailored the massage based on what my body needed.
She found all my spots right away, I love that.
I tend to like deep pressure and she made sure that it was just the right amount, checking in with me throughout the session to see if I was ok.
She was very professional and helped me to relax and be able to enjoy the massage. Plus with her expert touch, I knew I was in good hands.
I highly recommend her!!! Run don’t walk, you won’t be disappointed!
p. s. location is very easy to find and there’s a plenty of parking space too

Wow… if you’re looking for a real massage, I highly recommend you pay Jeannie a visit! Her hands are like magic wands that soothes away all your knots. Did I mention that she walked on my back and have never felt better before!
Yeah she had me once she stepped on my back. i was like yeah this is the real deal!!!
I’m always hesitant on trying massage places mainly because every time I get one, I walkout feeling worse and have a buyers remorse symptom. What a waste of time and money I would think. But here… just amazing and I will need to make this a Monthly ritual!
Got recommended to her by word of mouth. So she must be doing g something great! Your best marketing tool is precisely that!
Keep up the good work jeannie
I got the 60 min massage including a 15 min steam. I would skip the steam and just enjoy 15 more minutes of those hands massaging away your stress :-D. Thanks a lot jeannie!

I really want to give 5 stars, but a couple of things gave me pause. I will try it again to see if I can bump this up to 5 but for now…
I got a Gilt City voucher and made and appointment very easily with Jeannie who is super sweet as all the other reviewers said. The place is a little sketch to get to: the parking lot is a tiny thing, with only one lane to come in and out and limited parking. I was lucky enough to get one immediately, right next to the recycling bins, which sounds weird. But, Jeannie sent a confirmation text as soon as I made my appointment, in which she graciously explained how to get to her door. There is a yellow sign by the bins (to the right) and it says the Fix, but it has no arrow. Follow the path it is on and there will be another yellow sign, then you reach the end and go down the 5 steps and the door in front of you (not to the side) is The Fix.
The place is cute — Jeannie obviously put a lot of effort into making the space calm and serene despite the weird constraints of it. My only ehh moment was the bathroom — no lock on the door? And towels, which is cute, but disposable towels are more hygienic. Also, no hook for purse/​coat. A little awkward: there is only the one room, so she hangs out at the computer while you go through the door right next to her desk and change and stuff, but she is super cool about it, and gives you plenty of time to relax in the room.
The massage: Jeannie listens to you perfectly! Told her specific places that might need work, or to just move on if they don’t. Told her medium pressure, and she understood that I really wanted to relax with this massage. I started on my back, which I’ve never done, but it was interesting. She covered my eyes with a cloth and used a lot of fragrant oil on my neck/​upper shoulders so I could relax further. She explained her steps around the room, which is always nice. When she did my back, she finished by placing a hot towel on my back and wiping off some of the oil, and then wiped my feet off a little too — very considerate! At the end, she poured me a small cup of tea, which I think is the wellness tea that is advertised? Anyway, it was nice and cold.
I was super relaxed by this massage — thank you so much Jeannie, I almost fell asleep :) I want to come back and try that steam thing, and definitely the hot stone massage. Her prices also look super reasonable to some things out there, so I’m excited about this place!

Jeannie is absolutely amazing. I saw her after a painful golf accident that resulted in a herniated disc. She really took the time to listen and to take my needs into consideration and left me feeling fantastic. She is a true healer with an amazingly warm and outgoing personality. Very reasonable pricing — actually a steal for the quality of massage you are receiving. Do yourself a favor and call the Fix to set up an appointment today.

This is my best massage experience ever. Jeannie is an expert and a super friendly individual. She has a lot of experience and knowledge. Defiantly do the steam treatment. As a pretty athletic cyclist she was able to remove all my knots in my back and even my legs. If you have any questions about natural healing she defiantly knows her stuff. Thanks again for the great experience.

I am almost hesitant to write a review, since I want to keep her all to myself, but she is amazing! I have seen quite a few massage therapists over the years, and she just has an intuitive knack at finding the knots and tension. Her touch is firm yet gentle at the same time, and her space is clean, calming and delightfully cool in the summer. She is a real gem!

If you need a pre-​natal massage in Arlington or help with sciatica, Jeannie is the one to see! She is so super sweet and really knows what she’s doing. I leave her place feeling 100% better. Not to mention her prices are VERY reasonable. I will continue seeing her after I have the baby for sure but from what I’ve read here, she’s very skilled at all types of massage. So glad I found her!

I’ve had massages at various spas, including at the Ritz (for my b-​day), but none of them have been as good as the ones I’ve gotten at The Fix. I’ve gotten treatments here 4 times already, two for migraines that just wouldn’t go away and I left feeling like a new person. Jeannie, the owner/​therapist isamazing! I highly recommend her!

I was involved in a car accident several days ago and was experiencing lots of soreness and tightness in my back from the aftershock of it. I immediately thought to go to Jeannie to get my back worked on and that’s what I did yesterday. Jeannie is amaaaazingly good! After one hour of treatment, my back felt a lot more loose and even this morning, I feel great!
This is my 3^rd time seeing her and she never fails to get the job done. I highly recommend her. She is an amazing person and massage therapist. I love you Jeannie! Thank you so much!

I share the same opinion of my other Unilocalers! I was refered to Jeannie by a friend and I had a wonderful experience.
The space is warm and relaxing. Jeannie is friendly and very welcoming. She listened to my needs and concerns about some trouble spots.
She used a combination of stretching, her hands and her feet to work out some pretty tight knots in my shoulders.
Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. I’ll definietely be back to get another massage.

I absolutely LOVE this place. Jeannie is the best at what she does, she has an extra sense about what she needs to do to heal someone’s body. I’ve been going to her for the past year and a half and she just instinctively knows how to make my pain go away. I have a rare condition where I was born with an extra rib. I was involved in a serious car accident when I was 18 and the steering wheel hit my chest really hard. The rib got bent and got pushed underneath my collar bone and is now pressing on the muscles and nerves on the right side of my neck. I’ve been in constant pain for the past 12 years. The pain goes through the right side of my body, from the back of my neck, to my shoulders, all the way down to my lower back and right hip. The pain has been so bad that I could not turn my head towards the left, couldn’t lift my right arm past shoulder height, and had huge knots under my right shoulder.
The first time I went to see Jeannie I just told her where it hurt and she immediately knew the pain pressure points and what she needed to do to alleviate the pain. I didn’t have to explain anything to her at all. I’ve been getting massages for 10 years and I had always had to explain the pain pressure points to the massage therapists. Not with Jeannie, she just knew where to press to make the pain go away. She also had this awesome steam tent that she uses to help your body detox. I always feel like a new person after I leave a session with Jeannie. I have recommended her to all my friends and every single one that went and got a massage from her has become a lifetime customer.

I found the FIX after meeting the owner /​therapist downtown a short time ago. I haven’t had a good massage in a while, so I gave it a shot, and I have to say, Jeannie is a pro!
The space is beautifully arranged, the rates are very reasonable, and the massage was one of the best I’ve ever had, without question. More importantly, Jeannie is friendly and welcoming, besides being very good at what she does.
Overall a wonderful, warm and relaxing experience, truly a pleasure.

I recently started going to the Fix Massage after a friend told me that they were the best massage they’ve had in the Falls Church/​Arlington Area. Previously, I’d have to drive all the way to Bethesda for a decent massage, or settle for the express massages in the mall that always left me more sore than when I came in!
When I got there for the first time, I really liked the tranquil, intimate ambiance of the Fix. I came in because I had some neck/​back pain from a long plane trip and some soreness in my shoulder from playing basketball.
Jeannie (the massage therapist and owner) was awesome! I told her my problem areas and she worked her magic… she even incorporated some ‘walking on my back’ massage to get deeper into my problem areas. I never seen that done before and it was great… not at all painful like what it sounds like.
Since my first time, I’ve gone back once a month or so and have brought my wife along too :)
So if you’re looking for a really good massage in the Falls Church /​Arlington area, check out the Fix.
