Ayurvedic Therapies


Herbal formula preparations - Herbalism is one of ayurveda's most powerful methods of treatments. Ayurveda includes what is probably the oldest, most visionary, most developed science of herbal medicine in the world. Ayurvedic herbalism gives us not only specific herbs but a way of understanding all herbs. In keeping with this philosophy Ayurvedaology maintains a herbal pharmacy of over 100 herbs and personally make all our custom formulas for our patients. We use only the finest and freshest herbs, organic whenever possible, from around the world and use only vegetarian capsules.

 

 Abhyanga  is the classical ayurvedic massage. The main purpose of abhyanga is the liberal application of warm herbal oil to the body and its subsequent absorption into the body. Medicated oils are prepared and utilized according to the constitution or imbalance of the patient. Abhyanga is performed by two practitioners using perfectly synchronized and choreographed strokes resulting in a heightened state of awareness that will direct the internal healing system of the body.

 

Shirodhara is the continuous flow of warm medicated oils to the forehead area over the "third eye" region. It is a profoundly relaxing therapy and a wonderful treatment for alleviating the energetic imbalances causing chronic headaches, insomnia, anxiety, panic attacks and numerous other nervous disorders. Shirodhara is one of the ultimate luxuries in the application of ayurvedic body therapies.

 

Svedana (sweat therapy). After abhyanga, an herbalized steam bath is employed. The ayurvedic svedana is unique because the head, heart, and reproductive organs are kept cool during the treatment while the body temperature is heated increasing circulation and opening numerous body channels allowing deeper absorbtion of oils as well as elimination of deep seated toxins.

 


Nasya is the procedure in which medications are administered through the nostrils in order to purify  the head and neck region. The main purpose of nasya is to cleanse the nasal passages and sinuses. Nasya is considered the best form of treatment for diseases of the head, sinuses, and nasal passages and is a great treatment for allergic sinutitus and sinus headaches as well as hearing and visual difficulties. It is also very useful for stimulating the brain and improving memory.

Netra basti is highly nourishing for the eyes, removes eye strain and tension in the eye sockets, and is used to help manage other eye conditions.In addition it nourishes the nervous system, brain, and improves memory powers. It makes the eye lusterous, removes wrinkles, and improves complexion.
