Abhyanga & Garshana
A classic Ayurvedic prescription for glowing skin, internal/external cleansing, and supple joint health. This treatment begins with an Ayurvedic Dosha consultation and moves into a gentle restorative breathwork to encourage proper circulation, followed by gentle whole-body exfoliation utilizing Ayurvedic raw silk gloves. Next, medicated oils and/or pastes are prepared according to the client’s current dosha balance and spread on the entire body. The treatment ends with a short Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) and optional Nasya Therapy (medicated oil dripped sparingly into the ears and nose) for total radiance in body, mind, and heart.

Shirodhara Therapy
The most popular of all Ayurvedic treatments, Shirodhara dates back to ancient India. Today, Shirodhara has graced some of the most exclusive spas and healing centers in the Western parts of the world. Shirodhara Therapy is performed with heated, medicated oil, milk, and/or buttermilk, which is then poured from a copper vessel onto the forehead, temples, and third eye point for an exquisite, deeply relaxing 30-40 minutes. The session begins with an Ayurvedic consultation, which moves into a full-circle breath, followed by the actual Shirodhara, and final savasana (deep relaxation). This treatment is wonderful for those affected by stress, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, “worry lines,” dry skin & hair, and those seeking clarity in life.

Ayurvedic Aromatherapy Rasayana
or millennia, aromas have been heralded as one of the most
tempting and refreshing treats for the senses. In this session, you will experience an entire array of Ayurvedic therapeutic and sensual aromas, all of which are derived from plants, herbs, and sacred tonics as identified in the ancient Vedic texts. All of the aromas used in your session are 100 percent pure and therapeutic in quality, with scents ranging from traditional Jasmine, Lavender, Roman Chamomile and Rose Absolute to Wild Spikenard, Lime, Tulsi, Jatamansi and Wintergreen and everything in between. According to your dosha, as well as your path in life and goals for your treatment, this session will be tailored to your unique constitutional makeup, balance, or imbalance to bring about a renewed sense of peace, grace, and relaxation.

Restorative Marma Therapy
An intense session of heart and mind-opening breath and body work to remove blocks in one’s life and physical body while restoring a sense of overall restoration and renewal. Beginning with your Ayurvedic health consultation to determine where blocks or congestion may be within the body and mind, Marma Therapy then proceeds to Emo-Somatic Breath Therapy which evolves into manual Ayurvedic acupressure localized at any of the 107 Marma points on the body itself. Generally, stimulating therapeutic oils such as black pepper, ginger, basil, cinnamon, and clove are used during the Ayurvedic application of Marma Therapy. This therapy is best suited for those with Kapha imbalances, sinus congestion, PMS, fertility issues, menopausal symptoms, lethargy, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, melancholy or depression, and those who have recently undergone significant change or trauma in their life.
