| Ayurvedic
massage / Abhyanga |
|
Ayurvedic
massage is a therapeutic system, which gives the most natural
curing effect through the self-healing technique of the body.
It brings about perfect balance of the tridoshas. This type of
massage involves the movement of pranic energies within the body.
This is done by applying pressure through the muscles and nerves
with the aid of various herbal oils. It helps to preserve the
vital energies in the body and hence bring agility, flexibility,
suppleness and a wonderful feeling of well-being.

| Relaxing
/ Swedish massage |
| The
term "Swedish Massage" refers to a variety of techniques
specifically designed to relax muscles by applying pressure to them
against deeper muscles and bones, and rubbing in the same direction
as the flow of blood returning to the heart. Swedish massage was
developed in the 1700's by a Swedish doctor named Per Henrik Ling.
If you just want to unwind to calming music and the sound of the
water, then lie back and get the old "Shoulder rub" or
full body massage. |
| Aromatherapy
Massage |
| Scent
is the most enduring of our senses. It has the power to transform
our emotions, and heal our bodies. It can take us to another place
and time. Let us guide you to your aroma destination... Find out
what kind of essence makes you feel your very best and indulge in
a sensory massage using oils and essences just for you. |
| Reflexology
|
| Reflexologists
manipulate reflex zones most commonly on the feet but the hands
or ears may also be manipulated. A session usually lasts 45 minutes
with the client sitting in a chair or lying on a bed. The practitioner
uses thumb fingers in small movements over the sole of the foot.
This manipulation prompts the nervous system to speed up the body’s
response to an afflicted area by stimulating the flushing of toxins
from the area. |

| THE
STAR BATH |
|
As
you sink beneath the luxuriant suds and sip your drink, we invite
you to reflect on starlight and stardust.
Starlight
Stars are so far away that for most of them, it takes hundreds
of millions of years for their light to reach us. When we stare
at a star, we look back in time, and witness events that took
place eons ago. You even receive light and other waves coming
from the very dawn of the universe, silent remnants of a massive
explosion of energy that took place before time started and matter
formed.
Stardust
Your body consists mainly of molecules of hydrogen, oxygen, carbon
and nitrogen. Other than hydrogen, all your molecules formed in
supernovae, massive explosions that mark the death of stars. Only
a supernova can produce the enormous energy needed to fuse the
molecules of hydrogen to form the denser elements. Yes, the molecules
of your body, of all living things, of the suds, of the water,
of the bathtub, of the ocean, and of the earth, all came from
space that gave birth. You are made of stardust, so when your
eyes fix on a star, you are staring at the mother of your matter.
