We specialize in clinical and neuromuscular massage therapy and offer highly-individualized massage sessions to provide the best adjunct therapy for pain relief of chronic muscular issues such as neck and shoulder stiffness, IT band syndrome and lower back pain. Massage therapy restores flexibility and proper function in the body's range of motion to promote faster injury recovery.
Massage therapy can also help to reduce stress and anxiety, and restore calm after a frenetic day. I can only say that I am very satisfied with the service you give since after your massages I feel renewed, I have a very active lifestyle. I do plenty of strength exercises to really work the muscles plus dance semi-professionally, so when I received your services it really worked.

Services
Hi! I'm Krisstal, a licensed massage therapist and owner of Arlington Therapeutic Massage and Energy Healing offering highly-individualized massage therapy sessions and energy work to provide relief from chronic pain. I work on everyday people, from office workers to athletes to those just looking to relax in the Northern Virginia area.
Outcome-based massage customized to your specific needs. Sessions may include the use of hot stones, percussion massage device, and/or other tools. Energy healing consists of various holistic modalities typically stemming from ancient practices used to stimulate the body's natural ability to heal. Craniosacral therapy utilizes a light touch to release compression in the bones of the head, spine, and sacrum to alleviate stress and chronic pain.
Please arrive a few minutes early so we can start your massage on time and give you the full time scheduled for you. We may hold a short intake interview to discuss your specific needs and massage therapy goals. I prefer not to work around or over clothing; you will be securely covered and only the part being worked on will be uncovered as it is being worked.
Note you agree that it is your choice to receive massage therapy or energy work, are aware of the benefits and risks of massage and energy work, and give consent for massage or energy work. You understand there is no implied or stated guarantee of success of effectiveness of individual techniques or series of appointments.

CAN I JUST SAY.. this was the best experience I’ve ever had. I went to my appointment in so much pain. Shoulder, Knee, & Neck issues, I’ve never left so relieved and excited to come back! Kristal definitely did what needed to be done and I will never go to anyone else.

Krisstal is very talented in what she does, I went for back pain and stiffness that have bothered me for a long time. It only took her one hour, my back feels so so much better. I can't wait to go back again. Also, her place is amazingly clean and cozy, her level of professionalism and expertise truly set her apart from other massage places in town. I would highly recommend her service!

Simply Awesome! I've been going here for 6 months for Massage Therapy & Energy Healing, as well as Neuromuscular Cupping Massage and can't say enough how my overall health & wellbeing has improved. Krisstal is the real deal- extremely professional, knowledgable, flexible and accommodating to my every need, she adjusts each session to give me the specific care I require. Outstanding Business!

This was my first time here about 3 weeks ago and I hadn't had a massage in years. I have been having neck and shoulder pain causing tension headaches/migraines, as well as back and hip pain. Krisstal is amazing! She's kind, laid back but professional, very communicative, and knows what's she's doing! I had never had a massage quite like this nor had I tried cupping before. I've only had one more minor migraine since this visit! I'm making this a regular occurrence because self care and treating stress is just as important as the rest of our health care, if not moreso. Krisstal is also very reasonably

I came to Krisstal with chronic neck and shoulder pain. I'm happy I finally found the right person. I've had a few sessions with Krisstal, and all I can say is that she is amazing!
I enjoyed the attention to detail, great knowledge of different techniques, understanding of what's needed, what helps your pain points feel better and how to provide long lasting results.
Really enjoyable experience, cannot recommend enough. Thank you for being so hardworking and friendly!

Krisstal is amazing! I've been seeing her once a month for a few months now and every time our sessions end, I always feel a million times better than before. And if that was not enough, she is so kind and helpful especially when I have questions about her services. So far I have only explored cranial sacral therapy but I plan on branching out and trying other treatments because I am so happy with what I've received. Thank you Krisstal!

In the over 6 months I’ve been a client of Krisstal’s, I have received so much physical relief from her Reiki, massage, and craniosacral therapy. My neck and back pain is essentially gone, and my body feels much more aligned and balanced. She’s incredibly gifted and skilled at different energywork modalities, and brings a level of intuition and gentleness to her work that leaves you feeling completely relaxed and healed. I couldn’t recommend Krisstal more!
