ABHYANGA: $135 (60 min), $150 (90 min)
Abhyanga is an Ayurvedic external therapy meant to nourish the body with healing touch and warmed aromatic herbal oils. Abhyanga’s approach is not only muscular, but also cellular. Warm oils deeply penetrate the cells and release physical, mental, and emotional toxins. Abhyanga promotes healthy circulation and healthy joints. It is also considered a stress reduction therapy.
SHIRODHARA: $145 (45 min)
Shirodhara is a warm, steady, flowing stream of oil like a thread (dhara) carefully poured on your head (shiro). The 30 minute oil flow is a most effective treatment for total mental relaxation, giving you a sensation of deep peace while triggering a self-healing body response. Shirodhara is excellent for nervous system disorders, headaches, insomnia, anxiety and depression, among others. On completion of the flow of oil, the client rests for several minutes before the residual oil is wiped from the hair. Some head manipulation will be performed to increase circulation to the scalp. Once home, it is recommended to rest quietly for at least a few hours.
JANU (knee), KATI (back), GREEVA (neck) VASTI: $105 (45 min)

The oil is kept inside a vessel made by a special dough for 30 minutes and is followed by a skillful massage and fomentation (steam). The herbal oil seeps into the joint, inducing a deep sense of relief and delivering the herbal benefits of the oil, while triggering a self-healing body response.
PICHU: $95 (45 min)
Cotton pads (pichu) are soaked in hot medicated oils and gently placed on sore joints or your back to offer immediate relief from pain and discomfort. The warmth of the soaked pads seeps into the body, inducing a deep sense of relief and delivering the herbal benefits of the medicated oil while triggering a self-healing body response. Indicated to bring relief to back pain, sciatica, osteoarthritis, herniated disks, and damaged tissues such as tears.
