Bolus Bag

Bolus Bag is one of the best Ayurvedic treatments due to the fact that it is such a versatile massage. It can be useful for any of the three doshas. It is helpful for many bone problems, including arthritis, low back ache and even sciatica. It is very effective for providing good nourishment to the body.

The reason that this is such a useful massage is that there are three different variations, to suit what you need to feel balanced.

1.Podikhiza is the most commonly used. It uses herbs in the powder form inside the cotton bag.
2.Elakhizi is a type that uses medicated leaves.
3.Navara khizi which uses medicated rice.

Depending on what you need, you can change which type to use. Podikhizi and elakhiza are heating treatments so they are good for Vatta or Kapha excesses, while navara khizi is a cooling treatment and is good for Pitta. Each of these massages can be done with one or two masseurs.

Shirodhara

Shirodhara is the process of pouring either oil, milk or buttermilk from a bowl slightly above your forehead moving at a relaxing pace across your forehead.

According to Ayurveda, Shirodhara deeply relaxes the nervous system, lowers metabolism, integrates brain function and creates brain wave coherence and an alpha state. When the brain is under stress, cerebral circulation is compromised. As oil is poured on the forehead, the nervous system is deeply stilled. The brain waves slow down and become coherent. Once the brain is quieted, more life energy and oxygen and other nutrients flow more freely to the brain. The result: better brain function, mood stability and improved stress handling ability.

Abhyanga: Ayurvedic Massage

Abhaganya is all about oleation. Warm oil is poured over the body, and the body is stroked with specific movements to:
Soften the toxins in the tissues
Bring the toxins into the colon
Pacify the imbalanced dosha
Strengthen the body while it is in detox
Increase the softness of the skin and add luster to it, giving it a healthy glow
• Decrease Vatta
• Strengthen the Dhatus (the body`s tissues, in accordance with  the Ayurvedic texts)
• Increase strength and stamina
• Improve vision
                                                     • Promote healthy sleep

Abhaganya is a basic massage that helps nourish the body while releasing toxins. It is a very good massage to help strengthen the body. Remember that the skin is the largest organ of the body; it produces naturally occurring antidepressants, anti-cancer and anti-ageing substances, as well as hormones that enhance circulation. Ayurveda prescribes using the hands to massage the body with oil. The feeling of warm oils on the body has a very therapeutic effect, on physical and psychological levels, including the calming of the mind and nervous system.

Suggestions for when coming to an Abhaganya massage:
Come with your stomach half full
Wear comfortable and old clothes (they can be oiled)
Prepare your agenda to relax after the massage
For best results, book 7 consecutive days of massage. Ask me for your Panchakarma assessment.
Cost: $90.00 for 1 hour
We use organic and medicated oils.

I got my certificate !!

After an intensive month of studies at the Ayurveda and Panchakarma College in Kannur India, I received a certificate that allows me to practice panchakarma (purification therapies) and ayurvedic massage.

I thank all of the teachers, therapists, and friends from around the world for making this training a life changing experience and one that I hope to share with all of you.

Thai Massage

What is Thai Massage

Thai massage has been used for thousands of years. It has been used by
monks as one of the key components of medicine in Thailand.

There are many benefits to getting a Thai massage, for instance it reduces
stress and improves not only circulation, but energy and flexibility.

Think of Thai massage as doing yoga and getting a massage at the same
time, without having to put much if any effort into it.

What is panchakarma

 

          Panchakarma is the Ayurvedic traditional form of medicine used to cleanse the body, flush out toxins and improve immunity. 

Ayurveda is mainly to help rejuvenate, replenish and help prevent any further harm to the body, but it is also useful to help an unbalanced body become balanced(fixing the problems).
