MASSAGE HEIGHTS<br />

An Oasis Of Calm<br />

By diane feen | Photos by melissa korman<br />

It’s time to take a little break from<br />

your Yoga Mat and head over to<br />

Massage Heights to experience a<br />

different form of nirvana.<br />

This Delray spa offers healing massages, hot stone therapy, reflexology<br />

and facials at affordable prices. It’s known as a happy<br />

place where you can experience different healing therapies<br />

from top to bottom.<br />

In the geographic components of your body there are products<br />

and services that heal specific areas of it. For brightening and lightening<br />

your face (or to dispel discoloration) there is a new Pro Power<br />

Peel Facial. They also have a high performance Biolumin-c serum<br />

with vitamin C and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5.<br />

If you ask the Retreat Director Danielle Desautels, she’ll tout the<br />

results of this state-of-the-art facial serum. “I have been using Biolumin-c<br />

serum for two months and I am getting amazing results. It<br />

brightens dark circles, sun spots and reduces fine lines and wrinkles.”<br />

Massage Heights Delray has also added new massage modalities<br />

to help aches and pains and release toxins. Starting in February, they<br />

will be offering the Hollywood sanctioned art of Cupping Massage<br />

(Ms. Paltrow’s favorite).<br />

If you don’t know about Cupping, it is an ancient Chinese therapy<br />

that uses suction pressure to help relax muscles, increase blood flow,<br />

and relax your nervous system. According to Desautels this form of<br />

massage can help those with high blood pressure. Cupping is also<br />

used to relieve back and neck pain, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue, migraines<br />

and rheumatism.<br />

If you’re ready to pull the trigger on a state of calm, check out their<br />

new Trigger Point Massage. It helps release constricted muscle areas<br />

to relieve pain and help increase mobility. “Similar to deep tissue<br />

massage Trigger Point Massage therapy can help relax your muscles<br />

and release tension, often after just one session,” said Desautels.<br />

For those who feel the weight of the world on their shoulders,<br />

there is Cranial Sacral Therapy. CST is a gentle, hands-on massage<br />

that eliminates tension in the body, relieves pain and improves overall<br />

health. Developed by an Osteopathic Physician, CST has worked<br />

miracles for a myriad of conditions.<br />

Massage Heights Delray was built on the premise that everyone<br />

needs to slow down, relax and luxuriate in a state of calm. Owner<br />

Sandra Bonfiglio McNiven learned this firsthand. The family law lawyer<br />

found that getting massages was a great stress releaser for her.<br />
