Hijama near Springfield, VA
Getting here from Springfield
From Springfield the practice is about 16.2 miles away, roughly 29 minutes by car.
The route is unusual: there is no interstate in it. Old Keene Mill Road west through West Springfield and Burke, then the Fairfax County Parkway north for about seven miles, a short stretch of West Ox Road, and into Fair Lakes. It is longer than the trips from the north side of the county, but it is local roads and the parkway the whole way.
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. Old Keene Mill Road has a lot of traffic lights, and the parkway is busiest at the weekday commute. A weekend or midday session makes this an easy half hour.
Why it suits Springfield
It is easy to assume the closest hijama to Springfield must be somewhere inside the Beltway. The drive out to Fair Lakes avoids the Beltway entirely. If you are in Burke or West Springfield, take a few minutes off these figures.
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.
Coming up the parkway, Fair Lakes is the shopping area just before I-66. 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.

Hijama is a traditional practice and is not a substitute for medical care. If you are on medication, pregnant, or unsure for any reason, speak to your doctor first and say so at intake.
