Special #1: Shiro-Abyhanga-Nasya

Shiro-Abhyanga-Nasya

This season, don’t let allergies, colds and sinus problems get you down! Treat your sinuses and head to an Ayurvedic procedure known as Shiro-Abyhanga-Nasya.

Shiro-Abhyanga-Nasya (S-A-N) is a luxurious combination of a deep head, neck and shoulder massage, a facial lymphatic massage, deep inhalation of therapeutic aromatic steam for the nasal passages, followed by a nasal and sinus Nasya with herbalized nose drops. This popular treatment is an invaluable tool for balancing most sinus, head and neck disorders.

Our S-A-N treatment cleans, lubricates and strengthens the mucous membranes, keeping the nasal passages open, and increasing resistance to foreign particles. Massaging the head increases fresh oxygen (prana) and glucose supply to the brain by improving the circulation of spinal fluid and blood to the brain.

Schedule an appointment today for a S-A-N treatment. Hurry while our special lasts!


1 hour and 15 minutes treatment -  Price $95   


Special #2: Thai Massage


Thai Massage has it's roots in the ancient medicine of Ayurveda. The influence of Yoga is also present in the body positions and the stretches that are part of Thai massage. There are many similarities with Chinese acupressure as well. The original precepts of Thai massage were recorded in the Pali language of early Buddhist texts. The original practitioners were Buddhist monks in Northern Thailand in the 1st & 2nd centuries B.C. Traditional Thai Massage has survived into modern times due to it's preservation in the Wats (Buddhist Temples) of Thailand, which have served as centers of education, healing and sprituality.

Thai massage is performed on a mat on the floor, rather than on a raised table. This allows for many movements as procedures, as well as for proper use of the practitioner's body weight, rather than mere muscular force used in other types of massage. Along with bodily movements and stretching, Thai Massage consists primarily of pressure on the body's energy lines and pressure points. These are called "Sen" lines and are the same as the "Nadis" of Ayurveda, and similar to the meridians of Acupressure.

The purpose of Thai Massage is to provide relaxation and balance to the body's various centers, healthy blood circulation, and activation of the body's energy lines. It is meant to be practiced with a certain energy and vigor, and the pressure and stretching movements are matched to the clients needs and physical abilities.

So, schedule an appointment for a wonderful Thai Massage. Hurry while our special lasts! Call 503-248-4670 today!
