Skipping Beam Burst.
In the first part, I clip the Chozo statue so I can perform blind vertical bomb jumps through an opening in the collision to get around the Blob Throwers (giant flowers). I had collected High Jump Boots on this file but they aren't required. I used about 40 single bomb jumps and that ended up being more than I needed.
In the next part, I use a restart glitch to get around a Beam Burst Orb in the southern section of the area. I need Grapple Beam to progress further.
The restart glitch was already encountered by a few people not long after release.
Some links related to the glitch:

Additionally, as a note, there are Fire Gammas in Area 3 that require more than the default 24 missiles to kill. It is possible to kill these without Ice Beam by leaving the combat arena, backtracking to farm and refill missiles, then returning for the kill.
