A taste of Ayurveda
A Taste of Ayurveda Treatments are mainly for reducing Vata, with particular emphasis on Prana Vata, which is responsible for mental activity. So it settles the mind and is good for sleep and for stress and anxiety. People can take a course of a series of such treatments to help with sleep disorders.
Ancient texts recommend this therapy for a deep state of relaxation, and it has been used for millenia. Modern EEG tests have shown that the shirodhara can bring the activity of the two sides of the brain into synchrony, an effect similiar to that found during the practice of Transcendental Meditation.
Abhyanga
A gentle synchronised full body massage with individually selected herbalised oils. This is a warm-oil massage given by two specially trained technicians who work in tandem on both sides of the body. Abhyanga normally uses sesame oil, which penetrates the pores of the skin loosening impurities and toxins. The oils are concentrated with herbs and are metabolised by the whole body. Abhyanga is a favourite with our guests, it is carried out in silence, which helps to harmonise the body's functions. Silence and rest are important components in the process of activating the body's own self-healing mechanisms.
Shirodhara
In this treatment a stream of warm oil is poured evenly over the forehead lasting for some time. Shirodhara is done in absolute silence. It is a cooling treatment that settles the mind and profoundly relaxes the central nervous system. Men and women alike experience it as a high point of panchakarma therapy.
