The treatment is profoundly relaxing and balancing to the entire nervous system, taking you into a deeply relaxed state. Shirodhara synchronizes brain waves, enhances blood circulation to the brain, ans nourishes the hair and scalp. Experience a blissful sensation, greater mental clarity, instant calm and rejuvenation of sensory awareness. After your treatment, you can take the bottle of herbalized sesami oil with you to continue your self-care massage at home.:

Abhyanga (Herbal Oil Treatment): Individually prepared, warm herbalized sesame oil (chosen just for your constitution!) is massaged into the skin to nourish the skin as well as aid in removing impurities in the tissues. The massage facilitates both arterial and lymphatic circulation and promotes absorption of the healing qualities of the oil. The toxins are mobilized through the bloodstream and into the gastrointestinal tract where elimination will occur. The massage is followed by a hot towel treatment to further open the pores of the skin and drive the oil more deeply into the tissues. This treatment enhances the ability of nutrients to reach starved cells and also removes stagnant waste. Traditionally, abhyanga is done by two therapists working in synchrony on both sides of the body.
$100 for 60 min; $135 for 90 min with Marma point therapy
$150 for the synchronized two-person one-hour treatment with Marma point therapy
*Add Ear cleaning with Sesami oil during Abhyanga: $15
