~ Eastern Massage Modalities ~


Reflexology ~ This healing art is based in ancient origins, believed to have been practiced as early as 3,000 BC in China and 2,450 BC in Egypt. Believing that all organs of the body correlate to the nerve endings in the feet this modality utilizes acupressure points and offers deep relaxation as well therapeutic results. We use an all natural Sage ointment made from St. Johnswort flower and White Sage aerial infused into Virgin Olive oil, natural beeswax, lanolin, propolis extract and Vitamin E [30 min add on - $35 / 60 min - $70]
Abyhanga Massage ~ This warm herbal oil massage is a combination of rapid choreographed strokes, intuitive movements and integrationof accupressure points that are designed to bring nourishment to the tissues, deep relaxation to the muscles and calmness to the mind. Warm oil penetrates deep into the tissues to loosen toxins at the cellular level. The Abyhanga Massage also enhances immunity and increases circulation.

Because each body type is unique, the oil combinations are blended with specific herbs or essential oils to meet your individual needs. We recommend that clients take a "
Dosha Quiz" to determine which body type they have. We will use blended Ayurvedic oils that will correlate to your Dosha. [60 min - $90]
