AYURVEDA TREATMENT AND THAI MASSAGE
AYURVEDA
During the training you will have an intro to Ayurveda, the sister Science to Yoga. What better way to learn about the ancient vedic medicine by trying an Ayurveda treatment in Thailand! There are plenty of services to choose from based on individual needs. Our favorite is Shirodhara, a blissful experience that is sure to whisk you away from life’s tensions!
Shirodhara (Profound Relaxation Therapy)
Shirodhara is a simple, yet profound treatment that works specifically on balancing and stabilizing the activity of the mind. Warm, dosha specific oils and herbs are beautifully streamed over the Ajna Chakra or third eye taking the participant on a journey deep within. Shirodara is highly effective in normalizing sleep cycles, and reduces insomnia.
