Therapy Descriptions

Abhyanga: A soothing massage based on the body's marma (energy) points. It stimulates circulation of lymphatic fluid, using deeply nourishing herbalized oils to penetrate the skin, remove deep, long-standing toxins and nourish the tissues.

Swedana: Herbalized steam bath. A profoundly calming experience. The body is heated to remove mental, emotional & physical toxins lodged deeply within the tissues. Head is kept cool, providing a sense of calm & openness so the steam can cleanse deeply without overheating or stressing the body.

Bolus/Herbal Hot Compress: Herbal hot compresses are best used in conjunction with abyhanga and herbalized oils for deep rejuvenation of joints and tissues.

Castor Immune Packs:  Premier Quality Organic Castor oil is used in conjunction with Immune Boosting therapeutic essential oils to deeply penetrate the tissues and help trigger the release of internal waste products.

Heart Dhara - Oil Treatment for Heart, Emotions and Vascular System. Warm herbalized oil is poured repeatedly over the heart with heart marma point stimulation. This treatment opens subtle channels related to the heart and emotions. Bynourishing the heart, the emotions are strengthened and slowly and steadily, old blocks may be released.

Shirodara: A warm stream of herbalized oil is gently & methodically poured onto the forehead, synchronizing brain waves, profoundly calming the mind/body & emotions.

*Kidney, Liver & Spinal Dhara's also available

Basti: Guidance/preparation for an herbalized enema. Cleanses and rejuvenates the colon, enhancing elimination & nerve function. Necessary for the healthy maintenance of the gastrointestinal tract.

Marmani Chikitsa: A deeply relaxing and rejuvenate experience, Marmani is an extensive therapy on pressure points. It can correct, re-direct, and open the subtle energy flows of the body, relieving stiffness, enhancing nourishment and cleansing of tissues, and improving mental clarity.

Udvartina: Herbal powder exfoliating massage following Abhyanga and Swedana. The massage drains lymph while pulling toxins off of the skin that are released during the steam bath. Rejuvenates, tones, exfoliates and softens the skin, the body's largest organ.

Mud Detox Therapy: Therapeutic-Grade Clay and Moor Mud Packs are applied externally to draw out deeply embedded toxins, including heavy metals (mercury), dioxin, petrochemicals, aniline residues (from injected anesthetics) and more. Removes hidden, deep-seated toxicity in the ground substance of the body (i.e. the external meridians and connective tissue) which prevents normal nerve and "prana" flow. These embedded toxins can mean years of delayed healing - or none at all. For best results, use in conjunction with Abhyanga and Bolus herbal compress, followed by ionic foot bath & electrolyte tonic.

Ionic Foot Bath:  Detoxifying gentle foot bath for full body toxin chelation and purification.  Directly pulls released toxins from pathways in the whole body.  Highly recommended for all external detoxification sessions, especially for sensitive people.  Can be done on it's own to combat low energy or detox symptoms, or excellent when taken in conjunction with other therapies.

Ayurvedic Head & Sinus Treatment:  Traditional cleansing treatments for the ears, eyes, nose, sinuses and gums.

Internal Cleansing for Liver & Gallbladder:  Helps cleanse stagnant waste from liver and gallbladder, helps improve liver functioning and bile flow, helps purify the blood and lymph, and helps rejuvenate the whole body.

Ayurvedic Facials: Relax the mind while cleansing, nourishing & tonifying the skin. The goal is to create a deep calm in mind & body that radiates from the face. This is a transformative & healing facial, not merely cosmetic.
