Ive been going here for nearly two years and even after the break due to covid have returned (with appropriate safety precautions in place) and enjoy it immensely! Ive had many massages before with various people and continue to come back here due to their approach, professionalism, and quality.Roots recently relocated to a new location and have done a great job at making it feel just as inviting and welcoming as before.Highly recommended!

I am so impressed with the level of professionalism and care provided by Julie Benevides at Roots Massage. I had limited neck movement & significant upper back pain after being in a car accident and I can honestly say that I now have complete range of motion again due to the massage therapy I received specific to my whip lash injuries. Thank you, Julie, for all your help in getting me back to normal!

Before receiving care from Julieta, massages had always left me feeling terrible the next day. My body released too much junk too quickly to process. Julietas light intuitive touch has been such a gift. She has helped my body process the highs and many lows of IVF. Her massages during pregnancy helped me with everything from with typical pregnancy body aches to helping me feel more grounded. I dont get to see her as often as I would like now with a 15-week-old baby but her postpartum massages have greatly helped my healing process. I recommend her to all my friends. She is great healer.

I have seen Julieta for years, and she is the best. She is extremely knowledgable in a variety of massage methodologies. She listens well, is kind and caring, and meets each clients unique needs. In this time of caution in COVID, she ozones and disinfects beforehand. She and the client wear mask coverings for safety.Huge fan, and highly recommend.

Julie is AMAZING!!! I’ve been going to her for monthly massages for a year but it feels like I’ve known her forever. She is SO kind, compassionate, and incredible at what she does. She always makes me feel comfortable and relaxed. She really listens to what you need and is flexible and willing to adapt as necessary. My overall quality of life and wellness has significantly improved since I started seeing Julie. I can not recommend her highly enough, she has been such a blessing!

Julieta is just marvelous at what she does - skilled, intuitive, and kind. I have been seeing her for prenatal massages and recommend her whole-heartedly.

Julieta is absolutely amazing! As a survivor of sexual abuse, it has always been difficult for me to feel in touch and present in my body. She has always made me feel comfortable and is a great communicator. I love how attentive she is to my needs. Her healing touch has helped me heal in a multitude of ways. Highly recommend!!!

Love getting therapy from Julieta-started seeing her for lymphatic drainage originally several months ago for sprains on both my ankles. I’ve seen noticeable results! she’s continually learning new things to see if they bring further positive results. She listens to my concerns and ensures treatment that day is appropriate for how I’m feeling.She is amazing at making you feel comfortable and safe. I see her monthly and look forward to it every time.

Ive been seeing Julie for several months now. I initially went to see her for prenatal massage. During this time she was able to relieve some of my swelling and most of my discomfort and pain. Had I not gone to see her, my pregnancy would have been incredibly miserable. I enjoyed Julies massages and presence so much that I invited her to be part of my labor and delivery as well. I knew she would help me through the process like no one else could, and she did! I was thankful to have her there to keep me calm, relaxed, and to even guide my husband when things got rough. Now I see Julie for postpartum massages, and look forward to experiencing her techniques to help bring my abs back into tip-top shape.Aside from Julies incredible ability to heal, and shining personality- her treatment room is clean and relaxing. She has no pets, but tons of plants that give her space a natural and comforting feel.I definitely suggest going to see Julie, especially for prenatal massage. She is a life saver, and Im grateful for her services.

Words will never adequately describe how grateful I am to have found Julie. In addition to being exquisitely professional, shes also incredibly skilled, inquisitive, empathetic and kind. She creates a space free of judgement and fills it with love, light and healing touch. If youre looking for a truly healing experience, then let Julie be your guide!

Julieta is versed in many modalities — she always tailors the experience to exactly what your body requires, and she does it with unparalleled grace, kindness, respect, and skill. I most often see her for manual lymphatic drainage for my auto-immune condition, and I’ve benefited immensely. My life is much improved for having Julieta in it, I won’t see any other therapist as long as I’m in Austin!

I found Roots Austin online after searching for a masseuse who could perform lymphatic drainage massage pre/post surgery. Julieta had so many heartfelt, positive reviews, I decided to book an appointment. It was the best decision I could have made! We did a couple of sessions pre-surgery then several post-surgery and I can say, without a doubt, she reduced my inflammation and sped up my recovery. Ive had a lot of massages, and its pretty clear Julieta is well trained and passionate about her work, and I could always see the results the next day. An added bonus is that shes absolutely lovely and she supported me in ways that my medical doctors could not. She was a critical part of my journey back to health.

Julie genuinely cares to help make you feel better. Through her knowledge and expertise I left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. I would recommend her to anyone in Austin.

I have been seeing Julie on a regular basis (every 2 to 3 weeks) for a few months now. I always look forward to our sessions. Julie is professional and provides a warm and comforting environment. She is highly skilled in many different techniques, including being certified in manual lymphatic drainage. I began these regular sessions for stress management, and Julie has been highly successful in helping me in this way. I cannot recommend her enough.

I highly recommend Julie! She has a special healing touch that is so therapeutic and trusting, that I feel like I can breathe calmly and just relax so that my muscles and mind can be at ease. She aims to understand your needs by listening with a kind, open heart. Having known her through massage school, I always admired her for wanting to learn, grow and progress with her already impressive skills as a massage therapist. Always reading, researching and developing her craft makes her a therapist I can trust and relax with. I recommend Julie for any lady who is looking for a safe, personalized and restorative massage. Thank you!

Julieta gives a wonderful healing, nurturing touch to her massage. Her ability to relax the mind and body is amazing in itself, put together with her bodywork makes you feel brand new after every massage... I highly recommend it

The massages received from Julieta are the best I have ever received anywhere in Texas. She is intuitive to your needs and has a nurturing touch that makes you completely relax.

Ive been bringing my wife to see Julie for several months during her pregnancy for prenatal (and now postpartum) massage. I love the atmosphere that Julie provides. She is considerate and friendly, not only to my wife (who is the one receiving the massage) but to me as well. She gave my wife the best gift anyone could give to a pregnant woman, and that is an easier pregnancy. My wife absolutely loves her and her massages. 10/10 would recommend!

I have been seeing Julie regularly for about a year now and she is an amazing massage therapist. Not only is she completely professional but she is incredibly sensitive to her client’s needs and goes above and beyond to personalize her time with them. I look forward to every appointment I have with Julie.

Juliette is amazing shes very knowledgeable and great bedside manner.

Julie is simply the best! I started seeing her based on the recommendation of a good friend and I have since recommended her to others! She has helped me with so many issues, aside from relaxation! Shes helped me with pain from plantar fasciitis, ankle sprain recovery, and shoulder tendonitis. We did specific work before and after gallbladder surgery. We do lymphatic drainage when needed. Shes also helped with some issues around inflammation and dietary changes. She sends me links to physical exercises, articles to read, and recommended books based on whatever issues I have going on at the time. She is VERY holistic in her therapeutic approach and no session is ever the same because before we start a session she always explores any issues that are going on physically, spiritually and emotionally so we can use our time together most effectively. I see her monthly and she is the best self-care I have ever done for myself. I cant recommend her enough!!

Could not recommend Julie highly enough! I’ve been seeing her regularly for just over a year now and man, she is fantastic! I have had a number of health problems in the past and she has been able to work with me through a fractured ankle, DVTs, and countless athletic injuries. If you are looking for an intuitive and positive massage therapist- Julie is for you!

I have been to dozens of massage therapists over the past 15 years and she is simply the best! She is skilled in massage and genuinely listens and cares about people.

Julie is amazing! She really listens to what your body needs and you feel so rejuvenated afterwards. Best massage Ive ever gotten by far

Upon arriving to Julies I was kindly welcomed into her home. It is a wonderfully relaxing space and very clean. I received the Swedish Massage and it was AMAZING, so much so that I made sure to get on her books for another one before I met. Julie was so nice and welcoming, she took her time, you can really see that she is well educated on a womans body. I just found out I am pregnant and she walked me through what my pre-natal massages would be like as my pregnancy processes. I would highly recommend her.

Julie is a one-of-a-kind massage therapist. After each monthly massage, I feel deeply relaxed on a physical level as well as content and centered in my mind. Her mix of massage techniques, use of oils, and remarkable healing energy come together to create an incredibly calming experience. The space is always clean, comfortable, and restful, and Julie is always professional and warm. I cannot recommend Roots Massage highly enough for any woman looking for a safe and restorative massage experience.

I have been seeing Julie monthly using the monthly maintenance program and highly recommend! Not only is the monthly program affordable, but Julie is such a pleasure to work with. She really listens to you and what you need and will talk through the massage plan with you to make sure you are comfortable with everything. She keeps great records of your massages so that she remembers your preferences, likes, and dislikes. You can tell that Julie puts the client first and goes above and beyond for your wellness. She not only cares about you as a client, but as a person. I whole-heartedly recommend Julie!

Julie has excellent intuition and is continually educating herself. I was in a car accident last week and she was able to get me in the next day. When I got to her place, she was reading up on the body’s response to the type of accident I had. I’m pretty sure I would have been in a lot more pain if she hadn’t been able to work on me. Aside from that emergency, Julie has been giving me monthly massages for almost a year, and I wouldn’t live without them. She listens to my current issues and adjusts her treatments and only charges $75 for 90 minutes! Julie is the best.

Ive been a client of julietas, owner of roots austin, for almost a year - and i couldnt be more thrilled to have found her.she is a caring and gifted healer, devoted to her meticulously-honed craft. her practice is exclusively for women, a space of relaxation, therapeutic touch and healing. she researches and improves her wide knowledge base constantly, always curious, always genuinely concerned with going above and beyond to provide just the right care for each client. whether I book in with her for relaxation purposes or to work on tension in my shoulders and neck, I always leave feeling wonderful.

Im a nutritionist whos been manipulating her diet for many years due to various reasons - one of the biggest being that I cannot get my stagnant lymph to move so my legs swell terribly. I met Julie and loved her energy so I decided to give her a try. Beyond happy I did! She explained to me where I was holding the most water and how she was moving it (I ask a lot of questions). Weve had a few sessions now. Not only has this been beneficial to my body (my legs are slimming down), but it is probably the most relaxing 60-90 minutes Ive had in years. Her touch is truly healing. Thanks, Julie!!!
