Treatments Defined

Therapeutic and Injury treatment Massage A combination of Swedish, Deep Tissue, passive
range of motion, and gentle stretching to alleviate pain, stiffness, and sore muscles for treatment or
relaxation, or both. I often include relaxation in my injury treatment because relaxation is so important
to the healing process.

Abhyangha  Oil Massage
This massage is a whole body treatment that uses beautiful warmed oils (specific to your body
constitution)  massaged over entire body, including face,  scalp, chest and abdomen to improve
circulation of blood and lymph and also to improve digestive functions. Marma or energy points are
also targeted, and use of deep tissue massage as needed.

Traditional Abhyangha Oil Massage is with 2 therapists
$50 dollar addition to any Abhyangha Massage.


Items listed below are most often added to the above full body treatments

Udvartana
(dry herb scrub) This Ayurvedic massage uses soft ground herbs, spices and
flowers (dry or in a paste form) known for their medicinal qualities to ex-foliate and
cleanse the skin, detoxify lymph, improve circulation and therapeutic for various skin
conditions like acne, etc..  Great for Kapha body types, toning and improving the skin and
weight loss.  

Garshana  Brisk friction massage with raw silk gloves.  Recently featured on Dr. Oz
This therapy will gently ex foliate the skin, help lymphatic drainage, and facilitate weight
loss.   

                                                         
Items listed below are most often added to the above full body treatments

Shirodhara A continuous stream of warm oil flowing on the             
forehead for 30 minutes, inducing a very relaxed state.  Excellent for anxiety, insomnia,
excessive thinking, inability to concentrate and balancing hormones.                                    



                          


Herbal Steam Therapy
Enjoy detoxifying herbal steam after massage.                                       
Steam heat with essential oils allows muscles to relax, the oils  penetrate deeper, and
loosening deep toxins where gentle sweating allows toxins to then be eliminated. Our
sauna is a cabinet that keeps your head out of the steam, an Ayurvedic tradition.


Nasya Sinus therapy to cleanse and nourish sinus
cavities.  Herbal Steam inhalation and head and neck massage and dosha specific sinus
oil.  This therapy will help dislodge stuck dry mucous and clear your sinuses. Very popular
treatment in our Seattle climate.


Netra (eye) Basti     
This anti- aging treatment addresses imbalances in the head region
including sinus, eye health, facial wrinkles, mental awareness and mood.
After face massage, and head massage, eyes are then bathed in ghee
to reduce redness, strain and give luster to the eyes and reduce wrinkles,
and it is incredibly relaxing.





Hrid (heart) Basti     
A beautiful and relaxing therapy for assisting in releasing emotions, or stored emotions.
It's helpful in helping to process emotions relating to loss, grief and relationship conflicts.
It is deeply relaxing.  A ring of dough is placed on the heart chakra and filled with a special
ayurvedic oil that helps with the process.  When the emotional heart is more balanced,
physical heart symptoms can be resolved.  



Specialized Therapies (Basti)  Warm oil and herb packs on         
areas that need strengthening.
Kati Basti for low back,
Nabhi Basti for digestive organ areas, and Netra Basti
for eyes and nervous system.  All of these are relaxing
