Based on the ancient healing system of Ayurveda, this massage treatment is received in a seated position to relieve tension and blockages from your shoulders, neck, back and scalp. Using deep thumb and finger pressure, you will experience improved circulation to the head, the release of emotional and physical tension, and an enhanced state of relaxation and mental clarity.

Ancient Chinese theory of approximately 5000 years ago observed that feet are miniature maps of your entire body, with specific points on the feet corresponding to all major body parts and organs. This treatment uses specific pressure points to systematically activate the nerve reflexes, thereby stimulating all body organs and tissues to improve overall function and wellbeing. Effective for calming the mind, relieving headaches and inducing deep and restful sleep.

Shirodhara therapy works through to the deepest levels of one’s being. ‘Shiro’ translates from Sanskrit as head, and ‘dhara,’ as flow. A stream of warm, medicated oil is poured continuously on the forehead which helps to connect and energise the ‘nadis’, various channels that sustain our lives – from the circulation of fluids on the physical level to the subtle currents running through the meridians, chakras and auras. Using technical skill and intuition, this specialised treatment helps to improve blood supply, thereby increasing the flow of nutrients and oxygen, relieving tension, and promoting a clear pathway for nerve impulses to balance the nervous system and restore vitality. Shirodhara is recommended for sinus congestion, insomnia, and for clarity of mind. It is highly recommended that you avoid the sun for several hours after your treatment.

The fruit of a collaboration between our Thai medicine practitioner and cranio-sacral therapist, this deeply relaxing treatment uses traditional Thai meridian principles to slow down a hyperactive mind and restore inner calm. The face is gently prepared with coconut oil before acupressure points on the face, neck and ears are stimulated using fingertips and heated herbal compresses packed with nourishing Thai medicinal powders. The massage technique promotes lymphatic drainage for a detoxing effect that leaves you with a clear head, radiant glow and a soothed soul.

Harness the power of photobiomodulation, also known as brain light therapy, to elevate brain function and overall wellness. By boosting mitochondrial function and increasing cellular energy, this innovative therapy enhances cognitive clarity, emotional balance and reduces inflammation. Supporting all four brain quadrants, Transcranial Photobiomodulation Therapy provides a holistic and effective approach to optimising brain health and overall wellbeing. This light-based therapy uses red and near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths to trigger photochemical changes in cellular structures like mitochondria. By producing adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy molecule of cells, it energises brain cells to support physiological activities. It also enhances blood flow to the brain, delivering essential nutrients and removing waste products for optimal brain health.
