    A luxurious warm herbalized massage using flowing strokes to open up the detox channels and deeply relax the mind and body. This is followed with a stream of warm, herbalized oil flowing across the forehead to help synchronize the right and left hemispheres of the brain. Many of our patients have nicknamed this “the Bliss Treatment” because it helps quiet the mind into natural stillness.

    (gar-shuh-nuh)(ah-be-yun-gah) Lymphatic skin brushing and herbalized oil massage

    LIFESPA'S AYURVEDIC FACIAL
    $145 - 1 hour with one therapist

    The LifeSpa Ayurvedic facial is not your standard facial. Our one hour long Ayurvedic facial is a deeply relaxing, soothing and transformational experience.  The facial is, amazingly, one of the most powerful treatments in Ayurvedic therapy.

     

    In Ayurveda we treat the body according to its natural healing priority system.  In fact there are seven tissues or systems we treat in priority.  These are known in Ayurveda as the “dhatus.”  We’ll talk about the first two here.  The first of the seven is called the “rasa dhatu,” or the lymph of the body.  The second is the blood, or the “rakta dhatu”.

    Western medicine evaluates health by measuring the quality of the blood. Your circulatory system is like the faucets in your house.  Your lymph system is like the drains.  If  the drains are clogged, they will certainly back up into the blood, causing a disorder of the blood.  By treating the lymph through the skin, we are essentially preventing an imbalance from arising in the blood stream.  When that imbalance is in the blood stream, it is monitored by Western medicine and known as a pathology.

     

    The LifeSpa Ayurvedic Facial is unique because it stimulates lymphatic drainage from the skin into the circulatory system of the body.  If the lymph is sluggish, then the skin, which is drained by the lymph, will dry out, get wrinkled, develop acne, blackheads or whiteheads, and be unable to tolerate sun or weather, and basically become non-functional as an organ. 

     

    The skin is the fourth most important exit ramp for impurities to be excreted out of the body following the liver, kidneys and colon.  If the skin gets dry and toxic from the environment and the lymph becomes congested, the skin will be rendered non-functional.  These impurities slotted for lymph and skin removal will be shunted into the muscles, joints and fat cells, creating problems there, and further age the texture of the skin. 

     

    The LifeSpa Ayurvedic Facial uses our completely natural, chemical-free and preservative-free LifeSpa facial products  to detoxify the deep tissues of the skin, trigger a  balanced lymphatic flow, and restore the life, vigor and function of the skin. 

     

    Once the skin is detoxified and the lymph is adequately moving waste away from the skin, we can then activate the skin’s optimal moisturizing factors that restore the skin to optimal function.  Soon you need less and less of our moisturizing products:  Facial Moisturizer, Wrinkle Serum, and Body Butter, because the skin is now restoring normal function and moisturizing itself.  These products are “medicine for the skin” that are designed to establish optimal health through balanced lymph and skin function.

     

    If your lymphatic system is chronically congested, you may notice some of the following symptoms: wrinkles, dry skin, new skin tags or moles, eczema, rashes, itching skin, and edema or holding more fluids, sometimes noticed as rings getting tight.  Additionally, allergies, low thyroid, compromised immunity, headaches, sore throats, fatigue, sore feet in the morning or muscle or joint pain than can move around the body are all common indicators of a sluggish lymphatic system.

     

    The LifeSpa Ayurvedic Facial also treats the hands, feet, upper back and neck.  All of these areas are lymphatic control points of the body.  LifeSpa’s Ayurvedic Facial is not just a cosmetic experience but a deep and effective Ayurvedic therapy, designed to restore optimal function to the lymph and skin, removing stress, while bringing a deep sense of relaxation and calm, to the whole body.

    "I wanted to THANK YOU on this day because you are one who helped me move through a challenging transition of healing this year.  You are a wonderful healer and person that has been willing to go beyond the surface modalities and, with faith, gave a whole and wholesome guidance of Panchakarma and look at where I've been, and an inspiring self-nurturing foundation to where I'm going."  ~ A Panchakarma Guest

    "During the Spring cleanse I lost 13 lbs and kept those pounds off.  During the Fall cleanse I lost an additional 14 lbs and I feel incredible.  I discovered that I have a dairy allergy, and I am now planning on avoiding dairy for most meals.  I feel lighter and calmer and more "compact" than I did before the cleanse.  I was incredibly skeptical that anything would change, but you have helped me have better faith in myself.  THANK YOU!  I look forward to joining you again in the Spring 2012 cleanse!  (Hopefully at or very near my goal weight!)" ~ Colorado Cleanse Participant

    Panchakarma at LifeSpa was absolutely life-changing and transformative.  Through all the treatments, yoga, and breathing, meditation, and talking with John, I feel my body and soul are restored at many different levels.  I feel like a new person.  I have never seen my body so lean and my heart so calm and clear."  ~ A Panchakarma Guest
