Forte Holistic Therapies - Carlsbad, California

I recently visited Andrea at Salon Forte for a lymphatic drainage massage following my mastectomy, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Going in, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect and was a bit nervous—I wanted to be sure I was doing something beneficial for my healing process. From the moment I walked in, all my concerns melted away.

Andrea is warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about post-surgical massage. She immediately made me feel comfortable and confident in her expertise. The room was impeccably clean, with inviting decor that created a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere. And let me tell you—the massage bed was the most comfortable one I’ve ever laid on!

Her massage technique was nothing short of amazing—so rhythmic and soothing that I actually dozed off a couple of times. But the best part? I’ve gained mobility and noticed a significant reduction in swelling after just one session! It was absolutely glorious, and I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for expert post-surgical care or simply an incredible massage experience, Andrea at Salon Forte is the one to see. You won’t be disappointed!

My experience with Forte Holistic Therapies was incredible!! I got a lymphatic massage with Sabrina and she was so grounding and helped me to relax during the massage. She worked from head to toe and the results were unbelievable! My stomach looked completely different (in the best way) after our session, and the effects of the massage kept working into the next couple days. The women here are so talented at what they do, I would recommend this to everyone. I can’t wait to come back and get another massage and try out some other services. What a treat!

I had an incredible experience at Forte Holístic, not only because of the wonderful facilities, a heated table that shook, relaxing music, the combination of light, scents and top quality essential oils, which transported me to another dimension.

I was attended by the therapist Manuela who did an excellent job, the touch of the massage was neither subtle nor strong, but just right.

You know that massage where the professional is there completely and not thinking about finishing the massage and getting the money, on the contrary, I could feel the soul!

I highly recommend it!

A Massage Experience Like No Other

From the moment I walked in, I knew this was going to be more than just a massage—it was a full-body reset. Andrea, my massage therapist was amazing! The massage bed had a vibration mat underneath which really helped warm up my body and relax. The session seamlessly blended deep tissue work, lymphatic drainage, and assisted stretching, each technique flowing effortlessly into the next.

The deep tissue massage was firm yet intuitive, reaching those stubborn knots while still allowing my body to relax. The lymphatic work was gentle but effective, leaving me feeling lighter and more refreshed. The assisted stretching was a game-changer, improving my mobility and releasing hidden tension I didn’t even realize I had.

Just when I thought it couldn’t get better, the session ended with sound bowls, sending vibrations through my entire being. The soothing tones melted away any lingering stress, leaving me in a state of pure bliss.

This wasn’t just a massage—it was a transformative experience. If you’re looking for a session that nurtures both body and mind, this is it. Highly, highly recommend!

Forte Holistic Therapies is absolutely amazing! Andrea is truly incredible at what she does. Every treatment I’ve experienced has left me feeling rejuvenated, but the lymphatic drainage massages have been life-changing! After each session, I feel lighter, more energized, and just overall incredible. The atmosphere is beautiful, relaxing, and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. If you're looking for a place that genuinely cares about your well-being and delivers outstanding results, I highly recommend Forte Holistic Therapies!

The ladies at Forte Holistic Therapies are AMAZING. I found them during a yelp search for a great lymphatic drainage massage. They did not disappoint! I have never had a better massage, literally life changing. My whole body feels incredible after the 1.5 hour massage. It has helped me so much with lymphatic drainage & overall wellness. I could not recommend Forte Holistic Therapies more.

Andrea is a gifted massage therapist! I have over 20 years off experience as a massage therapist and am an instructor of massage. Andrea recently took a private training with me so we were able to work on each other and wow, lucky me! I asked her to share some of her own work with me so I could get a sense of what she was offering, and all I can say is the people of Carlsbad and the greater San Diego area are very lucky! Excellent quality of touch and techniques!
