Abhyanga (Ayurvedic Massage)

An Ayurvedic Massage, called Abhyunga, is designed with specific techniques to break up the toxins and help our body eliminate waste.  

Shirodhara

This is a drug free solution to insomnia, stress, anxiety and depression.  For 90 minutes you will experience a deep sense of relaxation.  

Kati Basti

For this treatment we use a dough made from black lentil flour to form a swimming pool against the body part we are concentrating on.  We fill the pool with warmed oil, sesame or medicated, and after 20-25 minutes we take it off and perform a massage over the area.

Tailored Health Plan with Ongoing Support

The truth of the matter with our health is that we can make a difference.  WE can make a difference.  If we consider health professionals - from nurses to doctors to surgeons and including Massage Therapists - as our RESOURCE to good health and ourselves as THE ONES ultimately responsible, then we can achieve good health!  Who puts the food in your mouth?  Who switches off the alarm clock in the morning and rolls over?  Who acts on the advice that others give us?

Nasya - Sinus & Hormonal Treatment

Can one treatment do both?  Yes.

Did you know your Master Glands the Pineal and Pituitary Gland is accessible via your nose?  That was a good design, wasn't it?

Netra Basti - For Eye Conditions

This is a relaxing treatment while working on your eyes, one at a time.  Your Optic nerve runs close to the key elements of the nervous system.  You know this because if someone throws you a ball suddenly, your reflex to catch it usually is activated.  In this way, if we relax your optic nerve, the rest of your body can then relax.
