Hijama near Manassas, VA

Getting here from Manassas

From Manassas the practice is about 11.5 miles away, roughly 23 minutes by car.

The route is Route 28 north for about seven miles, then I-66 east for one exit, off at the Fairfax County Parkway heading north, and onto Fair Lakes Parkway. If you are in Manassas Park or on the Centreville side of town, take a few minutes off.

These are clear-road figures from OpenStreetMap routing, checked in October 2026. Weekday rush hour can stretch them a long way, so check your map on the day, just before you leave. Route 28 is the slow part at peak times, especially around the I-66 interchange. An alternative from the west side of Manassas is I-66 east all the way to the Fairfax County Parkway.

Why it suits Manassas

Manassas is the far edge of the area many people think of as close, but the drive is simple: one main road, then one exit. For a practice most people keep up once every three months, half an hour each way four times a year is a small price for a practitioner of the same gender and a sterile, single-use kit.

When you get to Fair Lakes

The address to put into your phone is 4401 Fair Lakes Ct, Fairfax, VA 22033. We are inside the HAWA Fairfax Community Center, in Room 401a on the fourth floor.

Fair Lakes is the first exit after you join I-66 from Route 28. The community center is a low, dark-glass building set back behind trees, with a paved path up to the entrance. There is no clinic sign outside, so look for the building, not a sign.

Parking is free. Use the lot outside the building; park anywhere, no permit is needed. The parking lot, the entrance and the restroom are wheelchair accessible, and there is an elevator up to the fourth floor.

Come a few minutes early. A few screening questions come first, then the session; allow about an hour and a half for brothers and two hours for sisters. What to eat, wear and bring is on the booking page.
