According to Ayurveda (a 5000-year-old Science of Life established in India) each of us inherits a unique proportion of three mind/body/principles called doshas.  The three doshas Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, create our specific mental and physical characteristics. Our profound Ayurvedic treatments will help restore balance of your specific dosha.

A rare formulation of detoxifying herbs and vegetable protein is applied to the legs and feet and sealed with warm towelling. The botanical detoxification therapy is completed with Marma massage which works to strengthen the immune system by eliminating stress and anxiety. Absolutely delightful!




ABHYANGA                                                     Hayward       Off-Site
60/90 MINUTES                                                 $60/$90     $100/$150
Abhyanga is a traditional Ayurvedic full body massage. The Abhyanga is a "light touch" massage not a deep tissue massage that gently enco urages cellular toxins to be moved from the cells into the blood stream so that the body may effectively eliminate them. The end result of Abhyanga is a deeply relaxed physiology and enhanced feeling of well-being. For the ultimate experience add on the 30-minute Shirodhara.

SHIRODHARA                                                  Hayward       Off-Site
60/90 MINUTES                                                 $60/$90       Not Available
This treatment begins with a clarifying Ayurvedic facial. Your skin will be cleansed, a masque will then be applied that is most suitable for your skin type, and finally your face will be massaged with a cream of crushed pearls. The Shirodhara portion of the treatment begins with a slow pouting of warm oil onto the forehead. This stimulates the pituitary gland, helps balance the endocrine system, and relaxes the nervous system. You will receive a very gentle scalp massage so as not to stimulate the Vata dosha. The excess oil is then squeezed out of the hair. According to Ayurveda it is advisable to leave oil in the hair and scalp overnight to continue Vata pacification.
