The whole experience is coordinated to be a complete Ayurvedic treatment to satisfy the five senses & the five elements of the body-mind, including aromatherapy (sense of smell – earth element), Ayurvedic herbal tea & fresh juice (sense of taste – water element), candle light ambiance & guided visualization (sense of sight – fire element), hands-on massage with heated oils, and guided breathing (sense of touch – air element), Shamanic healing music & sounds, and voice guided meditation (sense of hearing – space element).
Integrated in the treatment will be Sanjivani’s specialization in the ancient healing wisdom of the nadi (energy channels) and marma (energy areas) of the body.
Jonathan will incorporate his experience in shamanic body entrancement to the massage, and he will also play the didgeridoo at an important timing during the session.
Sanjivani will take your Ayurvedic pulse prior to the treatment (Vata – Pitta – Kapha) to assess your state of health and balance in the five elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air, & Space, and fine tune the personalized massage accordingly.
The healing session will also include many more pleasant surprises, like a full Ayurvedic head & face massage, and a foot massage, cranio-sacral work, heated towels to keep the oiled body warm throughout, prayers & healing blessings, white sage smudging…and many more ecstatic gifts.
Some of the healing attributes of the treatment:
Therapeutic Rhythmic Oilation of the head, face, feet and body with warmed-up herbal oils chosen for the client’s Ayurvedic Constitution (Vata-Pitta-Kapha), with the movement, pace, pressure, and rhythm also customized to bring a state of health and harmony to the client’s body, mind and spirit. The massage will be either rejuvenating, detoxing, or balancing, depending on what is the most beneficial for the client at that given time and life circumstances.
The massage is done with long strokes and circular movements, with the qualified knowledge of the nadis (energy lines of the body) and marma (energy points on the body). As a result, energy flow is regained from the areas where the energy could have stagnated and been obstructed, like in the joints, lower back, neck & shoulders, head & feet, abdomen, etc. The oil soothes and rejuvenates the nervous system, the stokes invites a gentle lymphatic drainage, a strengthening of the muscular body, and a clearing of any stagnated energies causing pain, tension and discomfort. The head massage is known to relieve headaches, insomnia, and stress. The facial treatment is recognized for it’s anti-wrinkles effect.
This integrative massage is an ancient healing wisdom to be experienced. A profound relaxation, deep into the body is often felt, accompanied with a tranquil peaceful rest in the mind…allowing for the Soul to land.
