We are a women-owned and led business since 2014, dedicated to supporting your health and wellness.
Our customized massage therapy is designed to meet your individual needs and recovery goals.
Using a variety of modalities, we focus on improving muscle and joint flexibility to prevent injuries, while also reducing swelling and detoxifying the body to promote faster healing. Our goal is to offer more than just relaxation or relief from muscle pain—we aim to help you feel more connected and present in your daily life.
A massage is not only a way to unwind, but also an effective treatment for any condition or injury.
Relaxation is simply an added benefit.
Feeling Great was founded in 2014. Our initial location opened in the heart of Falls Church, a cozy studio with a lot to offer.
From day one, Silbia, our founder and lead massage therapist, focused on providing a service that goes beyond relaxation with a mission to help people through massage therapy.
We have now relocated to our permanent home in Vienna, VA and as we continue to grow, we maintain this mission serving our Northern Virginia community and Greater D.C. area.
“A massage should not be limited to only provide relaxation, but also help treat any condition or injury” – Silbia.
