SháNah Spa Ayurvedic Treatments
According to Ayurveda, a 5000-year-old Science of Life established in India, each of us inherits a unique proportion of three mind/body principles, which create our specific mental and physical characteristics. These mind/body principles are called doshas. Most of us have one or two doshas that are most lively in our nature, with the remaining one less significant. The three doshas are known as Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. We invite you to come to the Spa Scheduling Desk and fill out a questionnaire that will help us find your dosha. We are pleased to offer the following treatments that have been created to specifically address your dosha type, and to help bring you into balance.
Abiyanga
Our most sensual and exotic treatment, Abiyanga is a gentle massage ritual using traditional aromatic oils custom blended to balance your dosha type. The warm, herbal oils and light, rhythmic touch will soothe and restore your nervous system, transporting you to a state of profound inner harmony.

Shirodhara
This is a traditional treatment still found in India today. It begins with a slow pouring of warm aromatic oil onto the forehead, which stimulates the third eye and window to the soul. The oil is then massaged into the hair and scalp. Nourishing herbs are massaged into hair with the oil to cleanse and tonify the hair. Find out why this is one of the most profound treatments offered.
