Ayurveda is the science of life which has brought true health and wellness to millions of individuals throughout the ages with simple changes in daily living practices. By incorporating few of these proven methods into lifestyle can bring about radical changes in your life.

This ancient art of healing has been practiced continuously for over 5,000 years. The principles of many natural healing systems now familiar in the West, such as Homeopathy and Polarity Therapy, have their roots in Ayurveda. Ayurvedic practices restore the balance and harmony of the individual, resulting in self-healing, good health and longevity.

Ayurveda is the combination and extent to which one dosha predominates over the other doshas which determines an individual's body constitution, or 'Prakruti'.

Vata: This force consists of the Ether and Wind element which governs all movement of the individual from micro to macro, within and without.

Pitta: The fire element alone governs the individual's digestive forces right from food to thought.

Kapha: The Earth and Water elements come together to give the body its form as well as the ability to bind and retain.

Spa is the way to soothe your skin by replenishing natural minerals. This procedure begins with dry brushing, followed by a gentle salt or body polish exfoliation. The body is then layered with an exotic mixture of herbs in a mud, algae or cream (milk) base mask and cocooned in warm blankets. While the mask absorbs into the skin, enjoy a scalp and foot massage, followed by a massage under our 'seven headed' Vichy shower. The treatment ends with a silk-emulsion lotion application.
