The treatments in Ayurveda are considered to be therapeutic and support mental, emotional and physical health. I am happy to speak with you about how you are feeling or any diagnosis you've received in order to properly select the best Ayurvedic treatment to support you.

Cancellations:
As a courtesy please cancel or reschedule your appointment 24 hrs. prior to if you cannot make it. Appointments canceled within 24 hrs. are subject to a fee of $25.
Day of Treatment:
Your treatment will start at the time you book. Please arrive 10-15 minutes before your treatment to find parking and get settled. If you are late, your treatment may be shorter. Please wear darker, comfortable clothing that may get oily and bring a hat if the weather is cooler so the head can be covered after treatment. Refrain from eating within 45 mins. before treatment.
Post Treatment:
I offer clients organic tea options and/or water to rest and enjoy after treatment. At home, drink another 8-16 oz. of room temperature or warm water. Have a warm shower washing your hair and body normally. Take rest and avoid strenuous activity. Some clients ask if they can delay showering to enjoy the oil on the body. This is ok to do if you do not have a regular practice of oiling the head/hair/scalp/body. If you have a shirodhara or thakradhara treatment in which it's recommended to shower afterwards.
Directions:
Pull under the brick archway of 85 Willow Street. The "visitor parking" is on the left hand side (see photo below of the eagle building entrance in the gallery). If the visitor parking is full, please circle around to the back left of the lot and there will be more marked visitor spots directly on your left. You may also exit the lot and park on Nicoll Street. Please avoid parking in any reserved spots with business names on them.
