Marma Abhyanga
60 minutes
Marma Abhyanga is a wonderful combination of Ayurvedic massage with focus on the Marmas, which are significant Ayurvedic sites on the body that can be stimulated to achieve overall health and balance. Marmas are junctions for several types of tissue elements in the body that include blood and lymph vessels, muscles and bone tissue, and nerves. In this treatment, the therapist draws attention to each of the main Marmas on the body from the feet right up to the base of the head by applying special techniques using rhythm and pressure.
Merudanda Massage
60 minutes
In hindu belief, Mount Meru is thought to be the axis of the earth. The axis, or foundation, of man's body is his spine, thus the merudanda massage is primarily focused on creating body awareness and enhances flexibility in the upper and lower back. In this unique treatment, warm medicated Ayurvedic oil is applied to the back and used to facilitate traditional manipulatory techniques on the cervical and lumbar areas improving circulation, relaxing stiff or sore muscles and soothing pain from the everyday wear and tear of our back.
Shirobhyanga

This form of Ayurvedic head massage is a pleasant and relaxing treatment that has been developed over the years to become one of the most effective systems for relieving stress and fatigue. Using individually chosen aromatheraphy oils, a soothing, Ayurvedic massage is applied to acupressure points on the head and neck which regulate the function of different organs and systems of mind and body. This massage intensifies the cleansing of energy channels responsible for general well being and will help you relax, reduce tension, alleviate headaches and improve the appearance of your hair and scalp.
Shirodhara
60 minutes
Literally, "Shiro" means Head and "Dhara" means Flow. Shirodhara is the continuous, gentle flow of warm oil applied on the forehead, with focus on the area between the brows known in Ayurvedic belief as the "Third Eye". With its relation to the constant flow of life, this procedure profoundly coordinates and calms the mind, body, and spirit and enhances blood circulation to the brain, improving memory, nourishing the hair and scalp, and generally aiding in release of stress and tension.
