Services

In Ayurveda, bodywork serves not to address just the physical body, but the mental, emotional, and spiritual as well. I truly believe hands on touch is one of the most nurturing ways we can heal and feel cared for. All services are designed to calm the nervous system, and bring the body towards a state of harmony.

Abhyanga Massage

 

In Sanskrit the term “sneha” translates to both “oil” and “love”. Therefore, abhyanga can be referred to as lovingly oiling the body.

This is a full body massage that uses warm oil from head to toe. It is a deeply nourishing treatment to helps balance the 5 elements, soothe the nervous system, and calm the mind. The style I use is designed to move energy with rhythmic strokes and the client switching to various positions so that all areas of the body is worked upon.

*Both the 75 minute and 90 minute appointment have the same massage time length and sequence. The 90 minute appointment has a few small add-ons for those that want a touch of luxury.

*PLEASE NOTE: Abhyanga is contraindicated for the first 3 days of menses and during pregnancy. Do not book an abhyanga while you’re feeling sick or if your immunity is low. Abhyanga is also not recommended if you have a current cancer diagnosis.

This treatment will be slightly modified for men.

$150 - 75 minutes

The 75 minute appointment starts with a short intake, the massage, and a few minutes in savasana (rest period) to ground before you head out. Ideal for follow-up appointments or those who like to be in and out!

$165 - 90 minutes

The 90 minute appointment starts with a short intake, followed by a foot bath, the massage, a longer savasana (rest period), and time to sit and ground after with a warm cup of tea. Ideal for first time clients or those who like a longer, slow-paced session.

Ayurvedic Head Massage

 

The head and neck house some of the body’s most vital life points (marma points) and lymphatic drainage points. It is a common place where the body holds stress and tension thereby blocking energy from flowing throughout the body.

This warm oil massage quiets the minds and reduces stress and tension not just in the upper body but throughout. It is a deeply nourishing treatment for the scalp, encouraging hair growth and potentially delaying greying while promoting blood and lymph circulation as well as oxygenation of the brain. The face is also a focal point in this treatment where marma points are worked on to open up channels for lymph, circulation, energy, and relaxation.

This one hour treatment includes a massage of the scalp, face, ears, neck, shoulders, and upper chest with warm, herbalized oils.

$135 - 60 minutes

Ayurvedic Facial

 

Ayurvedic facials work on all layers of the skin and with the 5 elements. It will bring out your natural luminosity and leave you feeling radiant and grounded.

The treatment includes cleansing, manual exfoliation with herbs, floral infused compress, face toning massage, marma (energetic) massage with the kansa wand and hydrating face mask. I do not do any extractions.

Appointments will range from 60-75 minutes depending on what I choose to during treatment.

All ingredients are organic or wild crafted and earth derived.

*Please note that it is best to allow active eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, or any open wounds (including dental work) to heal before your facial and allow at least 2 weeks to pass after any dermal fillers or botox.

$155 - 60 to 75 minutes

Breast & Belly Massage

 

An add-on service to your Ayurvedic Head Massage or Ayurvedic Facial Treatment.

This 30 minute add on allows for more time working on the entire upper body. On a physical level the breasts and belly are sites where lymph stagnation can occur; massage of these areas is supportive for breast health and digestive health.

On an energetic level the breasts and belly hold vital points in a woman’s body that bridge the heart to the womb. They are areas where we tend to hold tension, shame, and the energy of being closed off to the world. By nurturing these areas—associated with the heart and solar plexus chakras—you invite relaxation, openness, and a greater receptivity to your own inner strength, softness, and love.

You will be given a warm herbal tea to sip on after your treatment to support your digestive and lymphatic system.

$65 - 30 minutes add-on

Karna Purna (ear oiling)

 

An add-on service to any treatment.

This 15 minute treatment involves filling the ears with warm sesame oil and allowing it time to sink in while the scalp, face, ears, neck, and shoulders are gently massaged. Karna Purna is a soothing way to calm anxiety, stress, racing mind, vertigo, tinnitus, and other Vata (space & wind element) concerns.

$30 - 15 minute add-on

Ayurvedic Foot Massage

 

A little 20 minute add-on service to your Ayurvedic Head Massage or Ayurvedic Facial.

In this treatment the feet are washed with a warm towel, followed by a soothing massage with a combination of warm organic ghee & sesame oil. I also may use a kansa bowl/wand (special metal made of copper, zinc, and tin) to stimulate all marma/energy centres and nerve endings in the feet.

This treatment relaxes the entire body, improves sleep, is supportive for the root chakra, and relieves excess vata and pitta.

$60 - 25 minute add-on
