Ayurvedic Therapies

These powerful but relaxing therapies form the core of our Ayurveda detox programs. They help release impurities, tensions and toxins held within the body. Once loosened, softened and mobilised these toxins can be gently removed from the body to give better health, greater energy, beautiful, glowing skin and eyes that shine with vitality.

Abhyanga is a wonderful Ayurvedic therapy consisting of a full head and body massage administered by one or two technicians working in synchrony on either side of your body. Aromatic herbal oils are lovingly applied to the body in a continuous flowing motion. The depth, speed and type of aromatic oil varies according to your Ayurveda body-type.

Vishesh is an invigorating Ayurvedic sports-type massage, with firm, kneading actions to help promote the release of deep-seated imbalances, toxins and impurities. It is especially helpful for soothing sore, tired or aching muscles.

Udvartana is a massage using a course herbal paste to enliven and energise the body. It helps promote better digestion, healthier skin, firmer muscle tone, increased circulation and a breakdown of cellulite. It is strongly recommended for those wishing to lose weight.
