Yulli Therapeutic Healing Center — Attraction in Tysons

On 31-May-19, (on the advice of a good friend) I decided to chance yet another therapeutic massage. While massages in the past have felt good, I've never walked away feeling any impact of depth. Based on previous massages, I didn't have an expectation for any change in experience. The massage administered by Tara Mcmaster completely took me by surprise. My first realization was that Tara hunts, finds, then focuses on the areas of your body that require a priority of effort. It was incredible how she found neglected areas, and would leave a cup to work on it while she went to hunt for other muscles requiring attention. I got the sense she was bread crumbing her body of work with the cups allowing them to soften the target so as to know exactly where to come back to for additional manipulation to increase that area's range of motion. In a word... "Unbelievable!" She knew right away that I am a runner. I didn't even have to tell her. In fact you don't have to tell her anything. She IS going to find it. When I told her that I'm training for the Marine Marathon, she also explained to me what I need to do (on my own) with my leg muscles to prevent my hips, back, shoulders and neck from becoming injured. The chasm between this massage and others I've had is too wide for Evil Kenevil to jump! :) No seriously, huge difference! If you need a therapeutic massage and you don't go to this practice, you are chancing disappointment. I have found my massage place now. Won't be looking...

Yulli has created a beautiful healing center that heals both body and spirit. I started seeing Yulli for massages about 4 years ago when I was suffering from chronic lower back pain. After a few sessions my pain had diminished and I started seeing her a couple times a year to work on my hips from sitting at a desk all day. I always feel like a new person after seeing Yulli but I have benefitted the most when I combine a reiki session with Nacira before my massage with Yulli. Nacira provided me with incredible insights on my chakras and flow of energy which made me feel light and balanced.

Updated April 2022: Recently I tried a sound bath with Vallerie before my massage with Matthew and I felt such a release of tension in my body. The sound bath allowed my mind to relax and my emotions to feel more balanced - Vallerie is truly gifted in her healing techniques. As a photographer my job is very physical so my body holds a lot of tension that Matthew was able to release with an incredible combination of breathwork and stretching. The blend of the sound bath plus massage is something I would highly recommend if you are seeking a unique healing experience.

Now my entire family goes to Yulli's trusted team regularly... they are...

I had been experiencing back pain and restrictive motion in my left hip for quite some time when my fitness trainer (I am a tennis coach and athlete) suggested I get a sport massage. I had previously gone to a chiropractor and had physical therapy, but I felt somehow, something was not being addressed. I felt my body had many imbalances that were contributing to my pain. My sport massage therapist at Yulli, Nessa Sandel, is a true professional and has an almost "6th sense" of finding origins of pain and going after them. I always feel at ease with her as she has a calming effect as she works on you, and I leave each session feeling less tight in my back and hip, not to mention so relaxed. After 5 sessions or so, Nessa suggested I see a colleague of hers, Rick Villanueva, for more in-depth treatment Rick is a very strong man, but also compassionate and humorous. His knowledge and expertise in diagnosing root causes of pain and, in my case, the restricted movement in my left hip, is phenomenal. After only 2 sessions with him, I am feeling much less pain and am gaining mobility in the hip. I highly recommend Yulli therapeutic as the professional staff there is...
