The Healing Tree, located in the heart of Del Ray, was established in 2002 by Maryellen Thorp, LMT. Maryellen had been Practicing Therapeutic Massage and Functional Training in the Old Town area when she moved to Del Ray. After exploring the neighborhood she decided that Del Ray was where she wanted to open a private practice that not only offered massage, but various types of different healing modalities. The Healing Tree began with one treatment room and two practitioners offering Massage and Acupuncture.
