Individual Sessions.
Hands of the Heart offers so many unique healing services it might be hard to choose! Often therapeutic massage is the starting point, but even a massage with Kristina is unique with the addition of Wisdom of the Earth essential oils included. If you’re having a hard time choosing which type of session you would like, know that we can switch gears mid session if we are guided to work with other modalities. Whatever you pick today, know that the perfect experience will unfold for you, at that time.
Massage + Aromatherapy
A basic massage with Kristina is anything but ordinary. Kristina integrates many styles of massage in to a style uniquely her own. Her style of touch is very grounded and never fluffy. With her magical touch, she is able to work into the deepest muscle layers without the pain that is sometimes associated with deep work. She is able to do this because she works very slowly, inviting and allowing time for muscles and tension to melt. She is able to accomplish this deep relaxation with light or deep pressure to meet client preference, but her pressure would generally be described as moderate. Most clients describe the pressure is “just right” - - for them.
She also uses a generous amount of the highest quality Wisdom of the Earth essential oils in her massages, as they each contribute their own unique healing gifts (on both the physical and the etheric realms) in addition to the physical tissue work. They are such a significant contribution to sessions that they are not an “add on”, although requests not to use them will of course be honored. Kristina’s way of incorporating the essences is similar to “rain drop therapy” which is a generally a standalone aromatherapy treatment. So not only will you receive an exceptional massage, you will also be receiving a healing aromatherapy treatment - - at the same time.
More than one client has expressed their experience as a “massage for the soul.” :) The result is that clients leave feeling nurtured and relaxed on the deepest levels and smell absolutely amazing!
Because of her unique way of working with tissue, Kristina recommends booking at least 90 minutes, and prefers 120 minutes when possible. She offers 60 and 75 minute sessions, however they simply do not allow enough time for a satisfying full body deep tissue massage. They are available for clients that prefer to work on a focused area, such as just legs or just upper body. They are ideal for a nervous system reset with work focused on the neck and head. She feels that working with the head and spine is where most of the magic happens, so she loves working on these areas and they have become an area of specialty for her.
Please note that the time reserved for your session is inclusive of all conversations before and after your treatment. Kristina loves bringing in all of her modalities too, it is simply a matter time available that you book for your session. She honors that it simply takes a certain amount of time to give a satisfying massage, so please choose your session length accordingly. Consider booking a longer Heaven and Earth Healing Treatment If you are interested in discussing a situation in depth and/or receiving guidance/coaching or including other modalities in your treatment such as castor oil treatments or sound healing. Questions after sessions such as “which essential oils do you recommend for me to work with” usually leads in to an in depth conversation that becomes a consultation and is outside of a massage treatment.
Sessions are most often given in her office in central Boulder, however she is able to travel to you within the Front Range area for an additional travel fee.
Signature Heaven & Earth Healing Treatment
If you would like to uplevel your already amazing massage + aromatherapy treatment, this signature healing treatment is for you! How does it get even better, you ask? With the addition of bringing in the multidimensional tones of the crystal bowls to your already extraordinary massage + aromatherapy treatment.
Extended treatment time is available to accommodate therapeutic massage, an aromatherapy treatment, and to experience the power of crystal bowls without necessarily a full sound healing session (choose a holographic sound healing session for that). Kristina has added this session type beyond a basic massage because it is just too much to try to accomplish all of this in a basic massage session and time just feels rushed.
Ideal for clients visiting Boulder for to experience the best of the best of what Kristina offers in hands on bodywork. It is strongly encouraged to reserve time, space and hydration for the body to process after these (and all) sessions.
Intuitively Guided Healing Treatment
This session type is the very best of the best of what Kristina offers. Choose this session type if you are ready to dive deep and create a lasting transformation in your life. Clients will often choose this type of treatment to explore the more energetic and spiritual realm of healing for what might be a deep seated pattern, challenging life circumstance or state of dis-ease. However, you don’t need to have a problem to choose this. If your life is flowing well, let’s open up the channels to make it even better! Kristina will work with her truest gifts, which lie in connecting to the unseen realm, the esoteric, the mystical, the totally undefinable, the connection to the all that is.
This is an opportunity to explore any of the other modalities beyond a typical therapeutic massage treatment (even though her massages are anything bur ordinary! :))
Extended treatment time is available and often begins with conversation as consultation and coaching may be an integral part of our time together. Kristina will listen to your situation and intentions and proceed with bringing in the questions and modalities that she is intuitively guided to work with. The entire time may be spent with conversation, however, she is ultimately working with frequency, energy and the unseen realm to assist in your transformation, beyond the spoken words. Therefore, this type of session could be done remotely. An hour is more than enough for remote work. More time is available for in person sessions for clients to receive hands on work on the table as well. This is a perfect opportunity to experience the power of crystal bowls without necessarily a full sound healing session (choose a holographic sound healing session for that). She is so passionate about the power of essential oils that using them will most likely be incorporated in to in person sessions. She will often ask about your astrology, so bring in your date, time (exact time is essential) and location of your birth if you are interested in a quick overview of your chart. With enough time allowed, the opportunity to receive hands on touch for in person sessions through therapeutic massage is strongly encouraged, which allows the body to integrate the work that is happening. It is important to have time and space for all of this change, therefore Kristina has added this session type beyond a basic massage because it is just too much to try to accomplish all of this in a basic massage session and time just feels rushed.
Ideal for clients visiting Boulder for to experience the best of the best of what Kristina offers in one session. It is strongly encouraged to reserve time, space and hydration for the body to process after these sessions.
Holographic Sound Healing
Whether in my office or around the world, with your intention + frequency of the sound, healing on any level is possible.
“I have been having a range of body work done in Boulder for almost 40 years. Today I had the pleasure of having an extraordinary session with Christina Turco. Usually I am oriented toward structural alignment, but for this session I wanted to physically released the grief I have been feeling over the loss of my beloved wife over a year ago. No sooner had Christina touched me than the tears began to flow and I felt the grief of not only losing her, but of my parents and grandparents as well– a grief of endless losses. But as Christina worked, her soft and soothing touch opened my heart and the grief faded to a sense of gratitude and connection — gratitude for having had all of those remarkable people in my life and for the gift each gave me. I left the session relaxed and with a sense of connection and integration. It was the MOST remarkable work I have ever experienced. Transformative. ”
