Ayurvedic Treatments

The continual pouring of warm oil to the forehead (3rd eye) is an effective treatment for reducing stress and expanding one's consciousness. It is done in a quiet setting with the individual lying on his/her back.

The mind, body and spirit are intimately connected, and Shirodhara, by calming the mind, relaxes the entire physiology.

Shirodhara is especially effective for those experiencing anxiety, insomnia, depression, and stress in general. Stress, according to Ayurveda, is a state of imbalance.

Sahasrara (the crown chakra) is the seat of the pituitary and pineal gland. As we know, the pituitary gland is one of the main glands of the endocrine system.

Shirodhara stimulates the pituitary gland which helps bring hormonal balance. Thus, Shirodhara, because of its calming and nurturing effect, is beneficial for anyone.

Through its balancing effect on the different body-types and its stress relieving capabilities, Shirodhara thus enables the natural expansion of consciousness, thereby leading to experience your natural state of bliss.

Nasal Administration

The nose is the doorway to the brain and it is also the doorway to consciousness. The nasal administration of medication is called nasya. Prana, the life force as nerve energy, enters the body through the breath taken in through the nose. The seat of Prana is in the brain and maintains sensory and motor functions. Prana also governs mental activities, memory, concentration and intellectual activities.

Deranged prana creates defective functioning of all these activities and produces headaches, convulsions, loss of memory and reduced sensory perception. Thus nasal administration, nasya, is indicated for prana disorders, sinus congestion, migraine headaches, convulsions and certain eye and ear problems. Excellent before and after air travel.

This treatment includes facial massage, steaming and marma-point stimulation.
