Ayurveda Services
Ayurveda is the traditional Indian science of health and comes from the Sanskrit words, Ayur meaning life and veda meaning knowledge. We are pleased to offer these ancient healing techniques for bringing harmony, peace and balance to one’s mind, body and spirit.
Swedana
An oiling of the entire body using long, slow rhythmic techniques, followed by a rosemary and eucalyptus steam in our cedar steam cabinet. The treatment is completed with a body dusting, using organic barley flour and a dry brushing which exfoliates and refreshes the skin. Swedana helps the process of detoxification by inducing sweat, calming the mind and alleviating muscle and joint pain. Ask us about contraindications.

Shiatsu
Shiatsu is a Japanese word that literally means "finger pressure," and it's also a name for a traditional Japanese style of bodywork. In shiatsu, the practitioner rhythmically applies deep yet tempered pressure to special points and lines on the recipient's body with the intention of facilitating the free and balanced movement of energy or chi and the release of accumulated tension. The result is often a state of deep relaxation and an ensuing sense of renewed vitality. This style of shiatsu is performed with the recipient wearing soft, loose fitting clothing and lying on a traditional futon, or soft mat, on the floor. Some assisted stretching and joint mobilization is also included.
$75 (60 min), $115 (90 min)
available weekends only

to assess and treat body pain, including
muscle tension, general aches and pains and
dysfunctional muscular position. It is very
relaxing and can expand your awareness
of your own body. Please wear light comfortable clothing [no oil used].
