Hello! I’m Starr Phoenix — the founder of Circle of Light Massage, a transformational women-only massage studio located in Lexington, Kentucky.

My studio is not just another place to receive a massage.

I am deeply passionate about my work and being present with my clients to help them achieve vibrant health and profoundly rooted peace in their body, mind & spirit.

​My journey as a massage therapist started after a car accident left me with chronic and debilitating pain.

The chiropractor who was treating me had an amazing massage therapist on staff. Their massage skills and intuitive touch were ultimately the reason that I was able to make a full recovery. Prior to this experience, I had never considered massage for anything other than relaxation or pampering until I experienced it as therapy.

My healing experience was so dynamically life changing that I decided to change careers. It became crystal clear that I had found my calling on my very first day of massage school.

Our bodies are different each day and I am here to meet you exactly where you are and help you on your journey. I look forward to offering you an exceptional healing experience in a beautiful, safe and sacred space.

“Starr is by far one of the best massage therapists in Lexington. I have had her work with several of my patients for various reasons, and each have left feeling great. I have found her skills far succeed the average therapist. I highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Starr consistently provides the best massage experience I have ever had. She manages to get into the deep tissue but works her way there gradually so I never feel uncomfortable. She is very intuitive. If you come to Starr for a massage, you will be coming back again. She's the best!”
