AYURVEDA (ayur means life, veda knowledge)
is the oldest healing system in the world, with origins in
ancient Vedic texts written before 4000 B.C. The central goal
of Ayurveda is to enhance the wellbeing of mind, body and
spirit. Ayurvedic medicine uses herbs, spices, diet and mind/body
exercises. Ayurveda provides an alternative approach in the
treatment of most diseases. It is especially effective for
stress related disorders, cancer, arthritis, and diabetes.
We offer a unique, personalized treatment specifically targeted
for your optimal health, wellbeing and living. We specialize
in Pancha Karma, the ayurvedic science of detoxification and
rejuvenation.
Ayurvedic Consultation
$150
During the initial 1 hour consultation, your basic constitution
(Prakruti) and your imbalances (Vikruti) is determined through
detailed questions, analysis, pulse and tongue diagnosis.
An individualized food plan is designed for your unique constitutional
requirements (Vikruti) since proper digestion is considered
to be the key to optimal health and vitality. These consultations
provide valuable personalized information that can be applied
for a lifetime.
Pancha Karma $150
This is the ayurvedic science of detoxification and rejuvenation
for systematically dislodging toxins (called "ama")
from the body. It is a five-fold therapy. It is often used
for preventing disease and restores vital energy flow through
your chakras. We offer the following services.
Mind Calming Therapy
Shirodhara $150
A unique therapy where you lie down upon
a massage table with your eyes covered with herbal patches.
Then, a specially prepared warm herbal oil is poured in a
thin steady stream through a spigot directly onto your forehead
(sixth chakra point). This blissful therapy purifies the mind,
alleviates your anxiety, reduces headaches and expands awareness.
Ayurvedic
Massage
Bahya Snehana $100
Two practitioners perform a choreographed
hand dance, massage and rejuvenate your body. Using oils blended
with special herbs, this form of massage specifically loosens
up the ama stored in the tissues. Bahya snehana is not only
cleansing, but also deeply relaxing.
Nasal
Administration
Nasya $50
This includes the nasya (nasal) administration
of herbal oils along with a facial massage and hot packs applied
to the forehead and face. Nasya is used for allergies, sinusitis,
and for focus.
Steam
Therapy
Swedana $70
Treat yourself to a full-body steam therapy.
Special herbs are fused into the steam and together the heat
and herbs dilate the channel systems of the body, facilitating
the removal of toxins and waste products.

Vitamin A and potassium, bananas are perfect as a mask to

"In my experience, I have found that
often a combination of approaches, when possible, may be the
ideal way to bring mind, body, and spirit together in healing
and maintaining balance. My background in both contemporary
and complementary medicine has given me unique insights to
approach healing with minimal outside intervention"
