MASSAGE
Star
Body Healing offers a therapeutic session with a
combination of the following modalities (Pregnancy Massage,
Fire Cupping, Tandem Massage, and Harmonyum
excluded).
MASSAGE MENU
SPORTS MASSAGE is a
more invigorating circulatory massage incorporating
friction and cross-fiber techniques that help stimulate
blood flow. Because it helps to clean out old adhesions and
scar tissue, this type of bodywork helps promote better
performance and faster healing of the muscle tissue.
This treatment can be done on all or part of the body with
oil.
DEEP
TISSUE MASSAGE is
slow, deep work that changes the fascial tissue that causes
large knots or built up tension in muscles. This work
is very slow and very sedative and does not require the use
of oil. Clients may request deep tissue work on
certain areas of the body that hold tension. Deep
tissue can be integrated with other massage modalities on
request.
CHAIR
MASSAGE offers quick
stimulation and relief to inactive and overworked muscles
alike for $1.00/minute. Stop by and receive one
before your workout to warm up your muscles, or after your
workout to help cool down your body and release lactic acid
that builds up during workouts.
REFLEXOLOGY
is a deep foot massage that
helps to relax the entire body. The foot is seen as a
mini-map of the body, connecting reflex points for organs,
glands, and all other parts. It promotes relaxation,
reduces stress, improves circulation, detoxifies and
revitalizes the body, improves mental function, stimulates
emotional release, and relieves pain. This treatment
is done on the feet only and some oil or lotion may be
applied
HAWAIIAN
LOMI LOMI MASSAGE has
a profound effect on muscle tissue by relaxing spasms,
relieving tension, and increasing blood supply which brings
more nutrients to muscles. It also stimulates sensory
nerves which help to relieve headaches, heightens
metabolism, and acts as a cleanser to eliminate excess
water and toxins from the body. This is a full body
treatment performed with oil.
THAI
YOGA MASSAGE focuses
on energy meridians, or channels, in the body and opening
the channels for energy to flow freely. It is usually
done with the client wearing loose fitting clothing while
lying on a soft mat on the floor, helping to connect with
the Earth. No oils or lotions are used during this
session.
LYMPH
DRAINAGE is a very
slow and gentle technique that promotes the movement of
lymphatic fluids in the body. The lymphatic system is
the waste disposal system of our body that works with the
vascular system. Lymph drainage can help to speed up
slow metabolism, flush toxins and lactic acid from the
body, and keep the skin elastic and healthy. It is
performed with oil, using very slow and subtle
movements.
REIKI
promotes free flowing energy
to the various meridians in the body. It is excellent
in helping any physical, mental, or emotional issue that
you are open to working through. Reiki is performed
with the client wearing loose fitting clothing and requires
little to no physical contact. This technique is very
subtle and promotes deep relaxation.
T’UI
NA is used to treat
soft tissue damage, joint and tendon diseases, and internal
disorders. It is often used for the treatment of
injuries. This treatment is very gentle, but
extremely sedative, and is performed over clothing and
without the use of oils or lotions.
SWEDISH
MASSAGE is a
circulatory massage, helping to improve circulation,
increase lymph flow, and move lactic acid and toxins from
the tissue. It also helps to stimulate digestion, and
influences the entire body and mind through touch.
Deep tissue work and/or shiatsu acupressure points may be
applied during a Swedish massage on request. This
treatment can be done on all or part of the body with
oil.
PREGNANCY
MASSAGE is beneficial
for women in their 2nd and 3rd trimesters. Please consult your
doctor before making an appointment. There is no one
more important than you at this time. Treat your
vessel like a temple and give yourself a relaxing massage
that can help relieve tight, sore muscles, and release
tension in your tight muscles.
COUPLES
MASSAGE is for you and
your loved one. There are two ways to receive couples
massage: a massage therapist can provide the massage
to one person at a time, or two massage therapists can work
at the same time in the same room, on your own personal
massage table or mat (depending on the style of massage you
choose). Come and enjoy a blissful massage while
connecting with the one you love in health and mind/body
awareness together.
TANDEM
MASSAGE is an
extremely relaxing experience. With two massage
therapists working on you at the same time, the benefits of
tandem massage are doubled. The energy of two massage
therapists allows your mind to let go and deep relaxation
promotes the deepest healing effects to
occur.
ABDOMINAL
MASSAGE is a very
soothing and gentle massage. It can help in improving
digestion and metabolism, and in eliminating constipation
and monthly female cramps. It is included in all
90-minute massages unless it is requested not to
be.
FIRE
CUPPING is a
traditional form of healing therapy that aids in
eliminating stagnation and improving blood flow. It
stimulates circulation by bringing blood and toxins to the
surface. Fire cupping works like a deep tissue
massage on your tissues, stretching fascial tissue and
helping to relieve deep knots due to overworked
muscles.
HARMONYUM
New, medically tested,
metaphysical healing system for our time. This
transcendental healing system is unlimited in it’s health
benefits, allowing us to receive help and guidance from the
spiritual realm of light. Harmonyum brings calmness,
relaxation, increased concentration, and heightened
vitality, causing the etheric energy to flow more freely in
your body. It is performed over clothing on or over
the client’s body using subtle movements. Strengthen
your energy and wash away any negativity within you with
this profound and powerful healing modality.
