Ayurvedic Detox Massage Treatments
| Ayurveda
is holistic approach to health and wellness aimed at returning the
body, mind and spirit to their natural state of balance. The word is
translated as the “science,” or “knowlege of life.” While
this method for achieving optimum health was developed in India over
5,000 years ago, its practical guidelines and effective treatments
for restoring balance and vitality are as important today as they
have ever been.
Ayurveda has long been considered Yoga’s “sister science.” The two have been practiced together throughout the ages as perfect compliments to one another. Ayurveda provides us with the tools for Self-Healing, while Yoga gives us the tools for Self-Realization. Integrating Ayurvedic healing therapies and teachings into the Omaha Yoga School was a natural evolution. It has always been our belief that true healing incorporates body, mind and spirit. Yoga mirrors Ayurvedic practices in that both teachers and healers "hold space" for people to discover their own inner guide and ultimately heal themselves. |  |

Doshas and the Five Elements Ayurveda
uses the concept of “doshas” to describe a person’s
constitution and target imbalances. Each person is comprised of a
unique combination of the five elements,
Ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth. Your
dosha is determined by the ratio of these elements within you.
Many people are a combination of two doshas. |
yurveda has brought lasting health and wellness to millions of people throughout the ages. It is recognized by the World Health Organization and is currently used by 70 – 80% of the Indian population.
Ayurvedic Consultations and Treatments
These
deeply purifying treatments are designed to help loosen and release
toxins from the body. They effectively restore balance to the organs
and tissues, calm the mind, and help to re-establish our natural
state of health, happiness, and an inner sense of wellbeing.
Herbalized oils carefully prepared to target your individual
imbalances make these treatments soothing, yet powerful and uniquely
effective.
Abhyanga
– Garshana (Oil Massage and Exfoliation)
This
full body treatment begins with a soothing head massage followed by
dry lymphatic brushing with a silk glove and an individualized herbal
oil massage. The brushing (garshana) increases circulation and
exfoliates the skin so that the herbal oil can penetrate deeply. The
massage (abhyanga) nourishes the skin, helps release toxins from the
tissues, stimulates blood and lymphatic circulation, and relaxes the
mind and body to support overall healing.
Shirodhara
(Pure Bliss)
A
deeply relaxing treatment in which warm herbal oil is poured in a
gentle stream over the forehead. This therapeutic treatment begins
with a soothing head massage and ends with a period of silent
restorative rest. Shirodhara calms the nervous system and
synchronizes brain waves allowing for a profound release of stress
and tension. Shirodhara enhances blood circulation to the brain,
relieves insomnia, improves memory and nourishes the hair and scalp.
Abhyanga
– Swedhana (Oil Massage with Herbal Steam)
After
your herbalized oil massage, you will relax on the table while a
light tent is placed over you. Your head remains cool outside as the
tent fills with steam (swedhana) infused with special herbs to help
further loosen and release toxins from the body.
Vishesh
(Ayurvedic Deep Tissue Massage)
An
individualized herbal oil massage which uses more pressure than
abhyanga to break up adhesions in the tissues, stimulate circulation
and assist the release of toxins from the body. When circulation and
energy flow are restricted by blockages, tissues and organs become
starved of fresh oxygenated blood and vital energy (Prana). For
certain body types and imbalances this is an essential therapeutic
approach for maintaining overall health.
Nasya
(Ayurvedic Therapy for Head, Neck and Sinuses)
An
important treatment for those who experience chronic head and neck
ailments. The treatment begins with an invigorating head, neck and
shoulder massage, followed by a soothing facial lymphatic massage.
Aromatic steam is applied to the face and then herbalized nose drops
(nasya) are administered. This ancient treatment is designed to help
balance, clear impurities, open the sinuses and stimulate proper flow
of energy and circulation within the head and neck region. It is a
wonderful treatment for those who are subjected to environmental
irritants, pollutants and excess sensory stimulation, as well as
those who experience chronic allergies, headaches, asthma, and eye
strain.
