Abhyanga  

Abhyanga is a unique form of massage, originating in Ayurvedic Medicine. It gives tremedous benefits to the mind, body, skin and immune system. The treatment involves copious amounts of oil and a unique sequence of strokes that relaxes and softens the tissues by lulling the nervous system into a deep meditative state. The Sanskrit word for oil , Sneha, also means love. Saturate your whole body with Love.

Shirodhara 

A warm and consistent flow of aromatic oils on the forehead, specifically on the “third eye.” This is the chakra point just above and between the eyebrows and is said to be the seat of human consciousness. The oils flow over the scalp and through the hair, creating a blissful sensation.  Emotions like fear, anxiety, anger, or irritability, dissolve into an ocean of calm. Your mind is lulled into a state of serenity and some people even experience a state of expanded consciousness.
