Ayurvedic Body Rejuvenation with Stephenie
Ayurvedic rejuvenation treatments, known as "Rasayana" in Sanskrit, aim to restore vitality, enhance longevity, and promote overall well-being by revitalizing the body, mind, and spirit. These treatments focus on detoxifying and nourishing the body, balancing the doshas (body energies), and fostering a state of harmony and health.
Garshana & Abhyanga $100/$140
GARSHANA is an ancient treatment using silk gloves on the skin to increase circulation and stimulate the pores for accepting the warm herbalized oils applied during Abhyanga. ABHYANGA is a rhythmic full-body treatment that promotes arterial and ymphatic circulation and drainage to facilitate cleansing and rejuvenation. A series of vigorous and slower rhythmic strokes help to eliminate toxins, restore the flow of energy (prana) and deeply relax your nervous system. Heated Ayurvedic oils are selected according to your dosha and condition.
Shirodhara $135
Warm oil is poured over the third eye/pineal gland, inducing a state of deep inner calm and relaxation. Shirodhara brings about neurophysiological harmony. This treatment is known for its profound relaxing effects and has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine to promote mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall well-being.
Session includes a massage to the feet, head, neck and face as well as the warm Ayurvedic oil poured in a gentle stream onto the forehead, followed by a rest period and warm towel compress.
Shirodhara + Swedana $170
Enhance the benefits of Shirodhara by adding Swedana, an Ayurvedic steam therapy that uses herbal steam to open the pores and remove impurities through sweat. After the oil flow, you will relax in a steam tent with your head exposed, leaving you feeling clear, rejuvenated, and deeply moisturized. Medicinal herbs like Lavender, Chamomile, Bay Leaf, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, and Lemongrass help to clear the channels, relax the muscles, and nurture the senses.
Swedana alleviates vitiated vata and kapha dosha. It helps to reduce pain, stiffness, heaviness and coldness in the body and indicated in asthma, cough, running nose, sinusitis, flatulence, constipation, heaviness, stiffness, joint pain, musculoskeletal pain, spasticity and various vata vyadhi like paralysis, osteoarthritis, low back ache, etc.
Sweating therapy is adapted to suit the needs of each individual, combined with proper herbs and applied with consideration to the imbalance, season, and organ affected to be effective.
