Our Ayurvedic massage, called Abhyanga, enlivens, cleanses, and revitalizes the mind and body. Warm herbalized oils are applied to the skin followed by a rhythmic light-pressured massage to help restore the flow of vital energy (prana) in the body. Stimulating the arterial and lymphatic circulation enhances the delivery of nutrients to tissues and the removal of stagnant waste. Profoundly grounding to the nervous system, Abhyanga can help with stress management, sleep disturbances, fatigue and is said to promote longevity. Aromatherapy can also be used during this treatment.

Shirodhara is a deeply relaxing therapy that effects the body, mind and spirit in a profoundly healing way. A stream of warm oil is poured over the forehead and scalp, then left at a point at the middle of the brow (the third eye). Shirodhara is a cornerstone Ayurvedic treatment. This treatment never fails to surprise and amaze newcomers to Ayurveda. People generally say that it’s like being in the deepest state of meditation that you can imagine. Some are mystified by it – but all are impressed.  

This treatment is especially helpful for Vata imbalance, stagnation, and the promotion of general health and well-being. 

(Abhyanga massage is contraindicated during the first 3 days of menstruation and the first trimester of pregnancy.)

WHAT IS SHIRODHARA?
Shirodhara is a deeply relaxing therapy that affects the body, mind, and spirit in a profoundly healing way. A stream of warm oil is poured over the forehead and scalp, then left at a point at the middle of the brow (the third eye).
Shirodhara is a cornerstone Ayurvedic treatment. The treatment never fails to surprise and amaze newcomers to Ayurveda. People generally say that it’s like being in the deepest state of meditation that you can imagine. Some are mystified by it – but all are impressed.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Shirodhara stimulates what’s called a marma point over the third eye (and the pituitary gland), releasing neurotransmitters and neurohormones that allow the body to relax and heal at the deepest level. A marma point, in the Ayurvedic Science, is a vital energy point on the surface of the body. The ajna marma, between the brows, is central to all brain function and governs the endocrine glands. On a more subtle level, it regulates the quality of consciousness. 
 
The very simple application of a steady stream of warm oil to the middle of the forehead recharges the body, brings clarity to the mind, increases focus, concentration, memory and cognitive function, and helps to normalize emotional balance. Tension around the spine is relieved, which helps to calm and clear the mind. Shirodhara facilitates the release of serotonin and can elevate alpha and theta brain wave activity. A series of treatments can have a profound effect in treating a number of neurological and psychological conditions.

WHAT DOES IT TREAT?
Numerous studies have confirmed the multiple benefits from Shirodhara. Besides relaxation and stress reduction, Shirodhara has been proven to offer relief from headaches, migraines and insomnia, improves sleep quality, reduces anxiety, stimulates better decision making, increases clarity and focus, quickens recovery from jet lag and helps to deeply pacify and nourish the nervous system. Shirodhara is an excellent treatment for routine maintenance of the mind, harmonizing brain wave activity that is disrupted by technology and modern living.
 
Traditionally, Shirodhara is indicated for diseases of the head, neck, eyes, ears, nose, throat and nervous system. It has been shown to have beneficial effects on asthma, cholesterol management, enlarged prostate, ulcers, rheumatism and diabetes. It is also indicated for alcoholism and addiction, mental over stimulation, and mental stress and strain, among other things. Shirodhara has the added benefit of rejuvenating the whole body, relieving exhaustion, and restoring the luster of the skin.
