If you’ve ever thought:
“I’m exercising, but my knee still doesn’t feel right.”
“My hip never felt the same after surgery.”
“My shoulder is strong, but I don’t fully trust it.”
—you’re not alone.
At Allume Med Spa, we believe that how you move directly shapes how you age. That’s why we’ve expanded our Wellness Campus to include StarFormer® Joint Performance & Rehabilitation—an advanced, non-invasive technology designed to support the way your muscles, joints, and nervous system work together.
Joint pain isn’t always caused by damage to the joint itself.
After injury, surgery, or ongoing inflammation, the brain often down-regulates muscle activation as a protective response. Over time, this can lead to:
Muscles that don’t fully “turn on”
Joints absorbing more stress than they’re designed for
Persistent stiffness or instability
Hesitation or lack of confidence with movement
Plateaus despite exercise or physical therapy
This is why many people feel strong—yet still experience discomfort or instability.
Healthy movement depends on clear communication between the brain and muscles.
Strong muscles protect joints—but only when they activate at the right time and in the right sequence. When neuromuscular communication is disrupted, even the best training or rehabilitation programs can feel limited.
This is where neuromuscular re-education becomes essential.
StarFormer®, powered by advanced technology from Fotona, is a non-invasive system designed to help re-engage and coordinate muscles without placing stress on the joints.
StarFormer® is designed to:
Reactivate inhibited muscles
Improve muscle timing and coordination
Reduce excessive joint loading
Support rehabilitation and performance
Complement (not replace) exercise and physical therapy
Sessions are:
Fully clothed
Comfortable and joint-friendly
Approximately 20–30 minutes
Non-invasive and non-impact
Many patients report feeling more stable, supported, and confident in their movement after sessions.
Knee Support
Helpful for chronic knee pain, osteoarthritis support, post-surgical recovery (once cleared), and athletic overuse.
Focus: Quadriceps and hip stabilizers
Goal: Improved stability and reduced joint stress
Hip Support
Helpful for hip osteoarthritis, post-hip replacement or arthroscopy, weak glute activation, and balance challenges.
Focus: Glute medius, glute maximus, pelvic stability
Goal: Better walking mechanics, balance, and confidence
Shoulder Support
Helpful for chronic shoulder pain, post-rotator cuff or labral surgery, overhead discomfort, and neck tension related to shoulder mechanics.
Focus: Scapular stabilizers and shoulder control muscles
Goal: Smoother, more efficient movement with less compensation
At Allume, we don’t separate movement, aesthetics, and whole-body wellness—because your body doesn’t either.
How you move influences:
Posture and airway health
Inflammation and healing
Muscle and bone integrity
Energy, confidence, and quality of life
StarFormer® is one more way we support whole-body longevity, helping patients move with strength, stability, and ease as they age.
Strong muscles protect joints.
Smart movement supports longevity.
Whether your goal is to stay active, recover confidently after surgery, train smarter, or simply move well for decades to come, supporting proper muscle activation can make a meaningful difference.
If knee, hip, or shoulder discomfort is limiting your movement—or something just doesn’t feel like it’s firing the way it used to—our team would love to connect.
