The package also includes a choice of Shirodhara or the Udvartanam treatment, which is effective in reducing cellulite. All packages are completed with a steam bath to cleanse the body at the end of the treatment session.
History of Ayurvda
A holistic system of healing originating from ancient India over 5,000 years ago, Ayurveda is an ancient science which focuses on establishing and maintaining the balance of energies within the body, promoting harmony between the individual and nature. Each person is viewed as a unique individual governed by one or more of the universal forces of nature. Good health is promoted by balancing these energies.
