Shirodhara:

This is a blissful one-hour treatment where you enter a deep state of relaxation. This sublime treatment involves a warm oil bath gently flowing ("dhara") onto your forehead ("shiro"), which helps:

·         Remove stress from the mind.
·
         Balance the emotions.
·
         Pacifies insomnia, depression, panic attacks and addictions. ·         Deeply conditions hair.

In ancient Ayurveda texts, Shirodhara is usually recommended for at least 14 days. However, shorter treatments are still very beneficial. You emerge feeling so refreshed as if you have just completed a long, deep and blissful meditation.

"One who applies oil on his head regularly does not suffer from headache, baldness, graying of hair, nor does his hair fall. Strength of his head and forehead is especially enhanced; his hair becomes black, long and deep-rooted; his sense organs work properly; the skin of his face becomes brightened; applying oil on the head produces sound sleep and happiness."  --Ayurvedic physician Charaka, Excerpt from the first text on Ayurveda compiled over 5,000 years ago.       one hour $100, series of 5 - $425

Abhyanga (pronounced ah-bee-ang-ah):

Abhyanga Warm Oil Massage:

In this one-hour traditional, rhythmical massage from ancient India, warm herbal oils are poured onto and massaged into the body. It is extremely nourishing, nurturing and one of the most thorough massages you will ever experience especially if it is preformed in the traditional way with two practitioners. Included, to suit your needs, are:

·         Warmed herbal oils.

·         Marma point therapy (Ayurvedic acupressure points).

·         Specific motions to balance the 5 pranas of the body.

Abyanga is a must for seasonal cleansing, stress release and rejuvenation.

Swedana (pronounced sway-dun-ah):

Swedana (pronounced sway-dun-ah) Steam Bath:

An excellent compliment after you've had a massage, Swedana helps to detoxify the liver, kidneys and the respiratory system. The steam helps soften and loosen impurities opening your pores for better circulation. Your therapist supervises you while you sit in a comfortable, private steam cabinet with your head outside the box. A cool aromatherapy cloth is applied to your forehead to keep your head cool and you are given pure water to drink. 

Swedana is soothing to the soul.

7-15 minutes (depending on your dosha) - $45
