Ayurvedic Wellness

Ayurvedic Wellness (Relaxation Massage Therapy)

Ayurvedic wellness is a holistic health practice that stems from the ancient healing system of Ayurveda, which has been practiced in India for over 5,000 years. It focuses on balancing the mind, body, and spirit through natural treatments, including diet, herbal remedies, yoga, meditation, and massage therapy. Ayurvedic Relaxation Massage Therapy integrates these principles, using warm herbal oils tailored to your body constitution (dosha). This treatment promotes relaxation, relieves stress, improves circulation, and enhances overall wellness.
