Pancha Karma and Spa Therapies
Pancha Karma (Panchakarma) treatment is comprised of
an individually determined combination of the following traditional therapies.
Most Pancha Karma (Panchakarma) sessions primarily include Abhyanga (Ayurvedic massage),
Shirodhara, and/or Swedana, which together comprise a Bliss Therapy; an Ayurvedic Consultation is required for
longer programs of Pancha Karma (Panchakarma) that contain other treatments.
Bliss Therapy
This 2 1/2-hour therapy is a combination of Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and
Swedana that takes the mind, body, and spirit on an inner journey of relaxation
and mental purification. Each therapy includes meditation and rest. By
creating deep relaxation, promoting energy flow, and purifying the body/mind,
Ayurvedic Bliss Therapy encourages a deep remembering of well-being and
peace that supports the healing process and connection to Spirit. Any
or all elements of Bliss Therapy can be done without an Ayurvedic consultation.
