Called them last minute to see if they had any availability and they got me in same day. Keith did an excellent job relieving the tension and pain- I’ve had lots of massages but his is different. A great different- unlike any other massage therapist I’ve ever had. It’s hard to describe it but trust me when I say he’s the best! Tell them Shannon H. from Fairfax sent you and we’ll both get a discount! (They can look me up on their computer) 🙂 It’s worth $25 dollars 💵 I think!!!

I received my first "in-water massage" from Melissa @ Be.Wellness. Very warm, relaxing and therapeutic. I am excited to return for another ultimate and amazing experience. Love yourself enough to try it. You will not be disappointed. Melissa is top notch in the field of massage.

This is by far the best place I have gotten a massage!! Melissa Barnhill was awesome and I loved how she explained things--she really knows her stuff as far as massage and why things hurt!! I will be coming back for sure !

Melissa offered a wonderful experience, and did a great job hitting all my target areas. I left feeling loose, and revived. I rebooked with her, and look forward to my next visit. Thank you Melissa!!! 😊

I have been a client of Sarah's since the beginning of 2024 and she is absolutely incredible! She is so calm and patient and personalizes my experience. When I leave, I am always feeling so much better than when I arrived. I highly recommend Be Wellness 🤩

I was warmly greeted by Chrissy at the door. She proceeded to have me fill out the necessary legal paperwork prior to our session. Prior to my massage, she asked my temperature preference as she could leave the heating blanket on the table or remove it. Very impressed with the ambiance and setup. The table was very comfortable. There was soothing music playing, and the dim lighting with candles burning was very calming. I was dealing with neck/shoulder/upper back discomfort. She spent the entire time focusing on my troubled areas all while making sure I was comfortable and the intensity was acceptable. My experience consisted of warm towels and hot stones (something I have never been treated with..but OMG…..amazing)!! Was I a little sore the next 36 hours, yeah. But that’s what I was looking for. Was I less sore than I was prior, absolutely. Now a couple of days later the pain is gone and I look forward to my next session with Chrissy. Highly recommend. Matt P.

Keith always does a wonderful job with massage and stretching. Will come back soon!

Sarah is truly amazing! I have been seeing her for 5+ years and could not recommend her more. She is attentive to your needs and adapts her technique for your specific needs during each massage. I always leave her table feeling rejuvenated and relaxed.

This past week I had a 60 minute clinical massage with Bethany. She was amazing and attentive. Asked where I was hurting the most and paid attention to those areas with care. I mentioned I like very deep pressure everywhere but my glutes which are very tender. Her pressure was perfect on my hard knotty shoulders and back, and when it was too much on my glute I indicated and she backed off and thanked me for the feedback. Honestly it was one of the most relaxing massages I've ever had. I could have stayed on the table after and fallen asleep if allowed!

I have been using Keith Simmonds as my personal massage therapist for 1 year. I rotate my therapists. He is growning into a massage master. Keith has become fluid and confident and is my number one choice.

Keith is a fantastic masseur, he is knowledgeable, attentive, intuitive and just good vibes. One of the best massages in my life, he goes above and beyond to address your needs. Book with him, you'll be glad you did!

I saw Keith and had a wonderful experience. Very spa like and relaxing. Really helped with pain I was having!

Keith gave me one of the best massages I’ve had. Before we started, he attentively listened to my concerns. During, he was kind, respectful and attentive to my needs! Keith is knowledgable, as he used a variety of techniques..stretching & hot stones were bonuses. He took extra time to work out my body’s kinks (I originally signed up for a hour, but new clients get a 90 minute special! What an amazing deal). When I need another massage, I will go to Keith & recommend you do too :).

I had my first massage at Be. Wellness with Keith and it was wonderful. He is so purposeful with his touch, very thoughtful with asking about and providing the amount of pressure I mentioned. He definitely has a gift and I’m so grateful I met him. Already have a 2nd massage booked!

Keith is a wonderful masseur! Beyond being incredibly skilled, he's personable and thoughtful, making for a great experience! In my two visits with him, he's shown the ability to vary pressure and technique (including excellent Thai massage methods and great targeted attention to my face and neck) to suit my needs. I'll be coming back!

I have a number of ongoing health issues, and Keith Simmonds was able to address all of them in a professional and caring manner. He was able to give me some relief from my current pain. I will ho back and have already referred my family members.

Sarah is AMAZING! She is hands down, one of the best massage therapist I have ever had. She works her magic on your problem areas and makes you feel amazing, relaxed and rejuvenated when you leave. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone.

Be.Wellness LLC has been instrumental in maintaining both my mental and physical health. The vast knowledge and high level of professionalism has created such comforting environment. As an abuse survivor it is difficult for me to physically relax and have a sense of security within myself. Melissa’s level of intuition and genuine care combats any of those feelings I may have and truly cultivates a safe space for healing. From facials, amazing Thai massages from Keith and a hydrotherapy tub, Be. Wellness has so much to offer. Definitely check them out! You won’t regret it.

Excellent massage and comfortable atmosphere. The personal touch from Melissa and Kieth is perfect for relaxing and restoring mind and body. I can’t recommend highly enough stopping in and being taken care of enough!
Feb 05, 2024
Extremely relaxing yet powerful in results. I felt refreshed and my tired joints and aching muscles felt super flexible and adequately stretched after the session. Keith sure knows his job very well. I will highly recommend one to try this traditional massage therapy from Asia that Keith has mastered so perfectly.

Gifted a relaxing facial through my parents for my birthday through Groupon. Planned my day around this and was looking forward to a relaxing hour. Upon arrival I get told my Groupon cannot be used because they will no longer accept them due to their employee leaving. The employee there said the manager will not accept it and had eaten the cost of others. Spoke with the “manager/owner” who never apologized on the phone and they said they wouldnt honor it because it doesn’t benefit them financially and hung up. So my relaxing facial turned into an awkward/ uncomfortable interaction as my first impression. Facial- Tried to relax as the weed eater and lawn mower were buzzing most the time. Overall was okay service, facial was fine as I have nothing to compare it to. $48 later I felt like I was robbed of my relaxing morning 😟

Had a couple’s massage with Keith working on me. His level of pressure was perfect! I haven’t been so relaxed in ages. Melissa worked on my spouse. Massages followed a soak in the spa tub and it was very enjoyable to share the experience. Was such a nice way to start a weekend getaway with my spouse!

I have had two massages done here and they are amazing. Relaxing and meditative, my body has never felt better. As someone with chronic illness I highly recommend!

I recently had my first Thai massage (90 minutes) with Keith. I found him through Groupon and was really impressed. Keith is a newly certified therapist who brings an impressive amount of knowledge and passion to his craft. His unique approach of targeted stretches and pressure points was the perfect remedy for the toll my computer-centric job takes on my body. Keith's enthusiasm and commitment to his clients' satisfaction are genuine. His attention to my comfort level and well-being, especially as a first-timer, were paramount. His massage style, conducted fully clothed, lends itself to a comfortable, respectful environment, allowing one to relax and fully benefit from the session. In a nutshell, Keith blends fresh professional insights with a client-centered approach that makes the experience both therapeutic and enjoyable. Regardless of your familiarity with massage therapy, Keith's service comes highly recommended. You'll leave feeling revitalized and looking forward to your next session. I ended up purchasing a massage package so my Mom and friend. Looking forward to my next visit!

I've been getting facials since I'm a teenager and she was the best I ever had. No soreness or redness. If I'm in town again that's where I'll go.

In my experience of receiving a Spa service -An Endless Summer, provided by Keith at Be.Wellness Spa, it was amazing! The foot scrub was my favorite part. Keith really knows his craft well. I was very comfortable and relaxed during the whole session. I would highly recommend receiving a service from him. Also, Be. Wellness is a wonderful place to have my relaxation needs taken care of. Thank you!

Keith did an awesome job with my massage! He truly listened to where I was having problems and made sure I was comfortable. You can tell he truly loves what he does. Highly recommend him and will definitely be back!

Keith, I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the incredible couple massages you've provided. Your exceptional skills and attention to detail truly set you apart. Your personable nature and easy communication make the experience enjoyable, and I appreciate how you always put the customer's needs first. Your ability to apply just the right pressure and accommodate any specific needs is truly commendable. It's been a pleasure working with you, and I look forward to our next session. Thank you for your outstanding service!

Be massage is amazing. Melissa is wondering. She listens to your needs and areas that need more attention than others. Her room is welcoming. The bed you lay on is heated to your liking. No other place would I rather be for a massage except maybe the beach. I high recommend BE Massage.

If you're looking for someone who understands how to correct issues, even if they are long term, go see Melissa. She's amazing.

Awesome relief from tension and pain!! I've been a client for quite some time and would recommend her to everyone! I feel like a new person when I leave her office!!

Best massage ever! Melissa is great, I feel so good after her massages. I haven't went anywhere else since my first visit with her.

Melissa Antcliff is a next-level massage therapist. She is very knowledgeable and it is apparent that she's continued to educate herself to improve the quality of her therapy and make her clients feel better. We are impressed by her ability to know the health of our muscles and to educate us on how we can better care for ourselves. She's able to identify injuries and can find the source of your re-currying pain. I love that she uses essential oils and paraben-free lotions. Her lotion is water-based and does not leave the skin feeling oily after the massage. We will stick with Melissa because of her professionalism, knowledge, and customer care!

Aromatherapy, subtle music, soft comfy sheets...total serenity! This is not a froofy make you sleep massage. Melissa finds the areas that need attention and gets results, she explains her findings and gives guidance on how to improve them for yourself as well. Her work is Amazing!!!
