NADI SWEDHANA "na-dee sway-duh-n"
(localised herbal steam)
Nadi, which literally means “tube”, refers to the localised Swedhana procedure using steam from an Ayurvedic herbal water decoction. This process is facilitated by the use of a pressure cooker and a reinforced plastic hose which eases the steam’s application to the body’s surface. Nadi Swedhana is used in localised areas such as the chest for respiratory conditions, the joints in arthritis and joint disorders, the abdomen for related disorders, in specific muscle disorders and paralysed limbs and body parts. Nadi is a more penetrating type of wet heat because the steam actively drives the heat, and oil (from Snehana) deep into the tissues through the pores of the skin. This treatment is often given to the whole body, except the head, heart and groin and focuses on the thick and complex structures of the joints to improve their mobility. Service time includes shower if requested at time of booking.
PINDA SWEDHANA "pin-da sway-duh-n"
(herbal rice bundle steam massage)
*available only as recommended after Ayurveda Consultation
Pinda Swedhana is rare and exotic experience in which a bundle, made from grains and herbs covered in cotton cloth are dipped in milk and used to firmly massage the entire body. Like most Swedhana therapies, Pinda Swedhana provides deep detoxification by inducing sweating. The therapy begins with full body application of organic herbal Samya Dosha Oils. Afterwards the entire body is synchronistically massaged with the warm bundles. Because of the messy nature of this therapy, there is minimal draping, thus disposable underpants provided. This therapy revitalizes the whole body, giving energy and mobility, relieving stress, restoring the appetite and sleep patterns.
