Eliza was absolutely amazing, and that’s an understatement. Her skills at massaging are top-tier. I have been to many postop Lymphatic Massage Therapist, at very reputable places, however, she is absolutely up there with the best of them. She is very strong and good at treating fibrosis. I love that this place has the convocation device, as Well, as the radio frequency.

I had a phenomenal experience at Carolina Pintos Therapy from start to finish! The staff are incredibly professional, welcoming, and truly amazing at what they do. From the moment I walked in, I felt comfortable, valued, and well taken care of. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence really stood out. I highly recommend Yunize for laser hair removal, she is absolutely amazing and makes you feel comfortable. I would recommend anyone looking for top-tier service and results; you won’t be disappointed!

Carolina Pintos Therapy has been heaven sent! The office is very well appointed and comfortable. All of the individual therapy rooms have top notch equipment. The therapists Michelle and Tiffany have been instrumental in my post surgery recovery. I feel significantly better after each appointment. I appreciate when I bring up concerns I’m having they address them at each appointment.
