Abhyanga (Ayurvedic Oil Massage) is a gentle healing art. Certain marma points (similar to acupuncture points and meridians) are massaged depending on the clients specific area of concern or illness. The individualized, medicated massage oils used are made from specially blended organic Ayurvedic herbs. They rid the body of toxins, elevate energy levels, calm the mind and nerves, and help sharpen the mind. As the specific marma points are stimulated (both with special essential oil and pressure) immune function improves, seratonin levels in the brain increase, and sleep improves. A full body friction massage is performed with the specially prepared oil allowing more time for the oil to penetrate deeper levels of tissue for healing. This is followed by a full body massage. The client is asked to fill out a short questionnaire for Ayurvedic evaluation 48 hours prior to the massage. This may be accomplished on line.

"Stones are alive, but they are in a sweet coma." -Dr. Lad
Stone massage is an ancient, enduring form of therapeutic bodywork using heated and cooled stones as extensions of the hand. It is a harmonious collaboration of healing energies between the client, the therapist, the divine and the stones. Be mindful that the beauty of this therapy is manifested by the transference of deep compassion and trust between the therapist and the client. This compassion becomes imprinted within the matrix of each stone. pointed, textured stones will be used as tools for deeper sore muscle massage. Round, flat, warm stones are laid as balancing agents upon specific energetic centers along the body known as chakras. Smooth, velvety stones are heated in water, then glided with firm pressure along oiled, sore muscles. Cooled sea coral stones refresh the face, refine pores and soothe sinuses. For some people, stone therapy can bring about deep tissue release and alignment of the body, mind, and spirit. For others, it means gently allowing the heat of the stones to soften tension and melt worries. The purpose of stone massage is to anchor the root chakra (muladhara) and the second chakra (svadhisthana) of the body. These chakras help our bodies stay connected to the earth. Many people, in our technological society, feel disconnected, rushed, are high on caffeine, over stimulated and stressed out. The warmth, energy and texture of the stones help distract us from our busy, scattered minds, imparting a quiet focus.
