READ ON TO LEARN ABOUT Marma, Yoga Nidra and Shirodhara
Ayurveda is a holistic health program that works with all systems of the body. Ongoing cellular communication between physiological and neurological systems is key to optimal functioning. The flow of Prana is how Ayurveda understands and explains cellular communication and neurological impulses throughout our biological systems. Prana is the breath of life. The positive flow of prana is the primary source of physical and energetic health. Maintaining pranic flow through all systems of the body is the single most important factor in health and therapeutic treatment. All Ayurvedic treatments work on the prana of the patient striving to harmonize and stabilize systemic functioning.
During the treatments you will be quiet, turn inward to withdraw from sensory overload. Limiting our sensory input rests the nervous system that in turn more efficiently controls our immune system.
These three techniques bring the nervous system to a state of relaxation crucial for maintaining holistic health. The state of our nervous system determines how efficiently the rest of our physiological systems function. In Ayurveda calming the nerves is the first stage of healing.
Marma Point Treatment is an
Ayurvedic treatment that directly harmonizes prana in the physical body. Marma pressure points are junctions in the body of important nerves with muscles,veins, bones and joints. The stimulation of marma points improves pranic flow bylimiting stagnation in the body. After a Marma Point Treatment your nervous system is calm and revitalized, an essential factor for maintaining mind-body balance.
Yoga nidra is a systematic form of relaxation. You are talked into the alpha state of
mind, very similar to a hypnotic state. Yoga Nidra is practiced laying down. No experience of Yoga is necessary.
Shirodhara is a gentle flow of warm sesame oil
on the forehead reducing anxiety and busy mind. The oil is slightly warmer than body temperature. The flow of oil lasts for approximately 10-15 minutes. The marma point in the forehead controls imbalances of the pituitary and hypothalamus glands.
