  • Ana is incredible. She is so knowledgeable, kind and makes you feel so comfortable. I saw Ana 5 days after I got my tummy tuck and honestly don’t know how I would have recovered if it wasn’t for her. I contribute so much of my incredible results to her work and expertise. After every session, I feel so much relief. I’m fully healed now and go to Ana for monthly lymphatics as well as regular massages. Highly recommend!!!

  • Ana is such a gift… kind, caring, knowledgeable and encouraging. My post surgical journey would have been horrific without Ana and her incredible lymphatic massages. I leave feeling lighter and motivated to tackle the next steps of my recovery. A must for pain management!

    - Linda B

  • Ana is so wonderful! She has been doing my post lipo/tummy tuck lymphatic massages for a while now. She is so unbelievably professional, knowledgeable and she spends a lot of time explaining her methods and what she has seen work best with her patients. She also has a great, easy to talk to, and caring personality. She’s very thoughtful with her treatments, from the oils she uses, to red light therapy, dry brushing, etc. I can’t say enough good things about her, I always leave feeling so much better and lighter than when I can. I will keep using her for a long time!

    - Lacey B

  • Ana is simply a gifted in her craft of lymphatic massages. Every time I’ve left my appointment I could feel the difference and experienced less discomfort in those areas. It’s almost like I have a new body each time and my recovery has sped up dramatically. She is dedicated to your healing journey and worth every penny. I didn’t start seeing her until 3 weeks into my recovery and know that I would be much further along had I started with her from being. You won’t be disappointed and won’t regret booking your appointment with Ana.

  • Ana was AMAZING! She educated me on lymphatic massages while having the gentlest touch. I felt such relief after! I wish she’d move to Cali ; )

    - Tammekca H

  • I highly recommend Ana R.’s holistic massage! Ana is a terrific person and works hard to do the best and in my opinion, she is the best! She goes beyond the norm, knows her stuff and delivers 100%! Even after post-surgical therapy needs had ended, why stop a good thing that was so beneficial to my health? Thus, I cannot imagine not going to Ana! I highly recommend!

Meet your Therapist…

Trusted Lymphatic Massage  and Post Surgery Post-op Therapist in Nashville, Ana

Specializing in Lymphatic Drainage & Post-Op Care in Nashville

Hello and welcome! I’m Ana Karina, a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) and proud mom of two wonderful kids. Originally from New Jersey, I’ve called Nashville home since 2013, and I absolutely love serving this community.

My journey into massage began after working in the corporate world and realizing I needed something more fulfilling. Following my heart, I trained at the Cumberland Institute of Holistic Therapies, where I discovered my passion for helping others heal through touch.

Over the past 6+ years, I’ve trained in a wide variety of modalities, including:

  • Integrative massage

  • Vodder & Brazilian lymphatic drainage

  • Craniosacral therapy

  • Reiki energy work

Soon I’ll also be certified in the Manuela Shala® LinfoModellante® Method, making me the first in Tennessee to offer this advanced European lymphatic + sculpting technique.

My approach blends science and intuition, tailoring each session to meet your unique needs. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, looking to reduce swelling and inflammation, or simply craving deep relaxation, my goal is to help you feel lighter, more balanced, and restored.

Massage isn’t just about muscles — it’s about transformation. I believe in the incredible power of holistic care to support the body, mind, and spirit. Every session is designed to help you move closer to living your healthiest, most vibrant life.

I look forward to holding space for your healing and welcoming you to Holistic Heart Massage.
