Swedhana (Swee-dana)
Cleansing and Hydrating
This is a herbalized steam bath infused with customized herbs to suit your constitution. It is best performed after a massage as it allows the oils to penetrate deeper into the tissues. This treatment softens the muscles, releases overall tension and gently removes deep-seated toxins through the skin.
Add-on to any massage: $50
The Shirodhara (Schiro-dara)
Head Oil Treatment-Deep Stress Relief and Mood Balancing
The treatment begins with a head massage and Marma (energy balancing) therapy. The pouring of warm, herbalized oil across the forehead and 3rd eye will give you the sensation of “floating” and you may find yourself in a state of lucid dreaming. As you unwind, the brain rebalances and releases neuro-hormones (like oxytocin), activating the body’s self-healing mechanism. Dwell in a state of restful relaxation while nourishing your hair and scalp with this rich oil treatment.

Energy Work
Marmas are the subtle junction points through which life force or Prana enters our body. Each Marma session is focused on enhancing the subtle energetic communications between the organs and tissues. During a Marma treatment we direct the subtle energies in the body with the help of touch, aroma, herbs, gems and sometimes sound. Sessions may include Chakra balancing therapies, a localized massage and traditional, Ayurvedic energy work.

It typically includes a herbal steam bath and a hot oil massage. It stimulates the lymphatic system to release toxins.
