Aem massage (Bahu Abhyanga)

Bahu Abhyanga is an arm massage that aims to relieve neck pain, headaches, aching shoulders, and tired hands that are caused by tension in your arms. Not only can many of these problems be alleviated but you will also experience absolute relaxation.

Hand massage (Hastha Abhyanga)

There are areas in your hands that are associated with various organs and systems within the body. The Hastha Abhyanga concentrates on stimulating these acupuncture points and energy meridians in order to help the body easily manage extra toxins.

Leg massage (Nalakini Abhyanga)

The Nalakini Abhyanga leg massage helps relieve and prevent many problems such as varicose veins, tightness or cramps in muscles after exercise, puffiness or swelling, and fatigue. This is done by stimulating circulation through gentle, but deep massage.

Foot massage (Pada Abhyanga - from the foot up to the knee)

Relieve acute pain and improve posture and overall health of the organs with Pada Abhyanga, a foot massage that concentrates on the ‘tender spots’ from the foot up to the knee. This massage also helps battle dryness, numbness, and fatigue in the legs as well as cracked heels.

Powder massage (Udvartana)

Meaning to elevate or to promote, Udvartana improves the condition of the body through upward massage strokes. By cleansing skin and increasing blood circulation, Udvartana breaks down subcutaneous fat storage and stimulates hair follicles as well as promoting weight loss.

Body massage (Abhyanga - neck to toe)

Enjoy complete relaxation from neck to toe with Abhyanga. This body massage incorporates different types of Ayurveda oils and a steam or herbal bath to promote the well-being of both mind and body. Results include general rejuvenation and relieving of body aches and pains.

Back massage (Paschima Abhyanga)

Using special “pain-reducing herbal oils”, Paschima Abhyanga aims to tackle backaches and tensed, knotted muscles on the back and along the spine. The results of this back massage include alleviating aches and pains, reducing stress levels, and benefitting the nervous system

Piccichil

Gentle but highly effective, Piccichil is a special massage that is conducted under medical supervision. Prescribed for general health, rejuvenation, and rheumatic conditions, Piccichil is carried out by pouring oil onto the body followed by soft yet potent strokes.

Herbal steam bath (Vashpa Swedha)

Be rejuvenated with the goodness of a variety of herbs used in Vashpa Swedha. This is a special procedure of sudation that cleanses the skin and leaves it fresh and supple. Offered with an Abhyanga or an Udvarthana treatment, it is used in combating acne and congested skin.

Navarakizhi

Reduce cholesterol, relieve arthritis, and ease your aches and pains with Navarakizhi. This intense treatment involves fomentation of the body using a bolus of cooked rice dipped in warm milk then applied all over the body using gentle yet effective massage techniques.

Body wrap (Sharira Ubtan)

Be cocooned in a cooling herb paste that will relieve sunburnt and dry, damaged skin. The Sharira Ubtan body wrap has the power to cool any skin condition caused by hot weather and leaves you with revitalized bodily tissues.

Nasal Inhalation (Nasna)

Get rid of sinuses with Nasna. This is a nasal inhalation treatment that is used in clearing away excess bodily humor or fluids accumulated in the throat, sinus, nose, or head.

Nasya is a nasal therapy that will give you a number of benefits ranging from cleansing sinus cavities, promoting sleep or relaxation, and reducing dark circles around the eyes. The therapy involves administering medicated powders or liquid drops into the nasal cavity.

A slight variation of Shirovasti, the Pichu is a treatment that combats ailments affecting the region above your neck and of the cranial nerves. In a Pichu treatment, you will undergo an application of special oil as well as an herbal bath.

Urovasti

If you are experiencing chest pains, Urovasti is the treatment for you. In this, a small receptacle of black gram paste is placed on the chest to which oil will be poured over and kept for some time in order to treat pain in the sternum.

Kativasti

Kati means the central body and Vasti means a container, thus Kativasti is a treatment that is concentrated on relieving pain and stiffness in the lower back. This is done by placing a receptacle of gram dough on the lower back into which a special oil is slowly poured into.

Hwarbal Snana (Bath)

In many parts of Asia, cleansing the body is considered a sacred ritual. This is where Herbal Snana comes in, as it includes a special bath of Ayurveda herbs that cleanses the skin, eliminates toxins, and combats a number of skin conditions among other benefits.

Shirodhara

In Shirodhara, a fine stream of warm Ayurveda oils will be run on the ‘third eye’ area of your forehead resulting in deep relaxation and the revitalizing of the central nervous system. The treatment is carried out 45 minutes a day for a period of three days.

Alepa (medicinal herb plaster)

This treatment involves Lepana, an external application of medical paste that is used to combat inflammatory conditions. The paste used in this plastering procedure can vary according to the nature of the ailment of the individual.
