Shirodhara is traditional Ayurvedic therapy. As the Sanskrit name suggests “shiro” (head) and “dhara” (flow), involves gently pouring a continuous stream of warm liquid on the forehead. I use a medicinal oil with ashwagandha, sharavari, bhringraj, skullcap, and gotu kola in a base of sesame oil to promote relaxation and overall well-being.

The calming effects of this treatment also help to clear old patterns that may be stuck in our body and no longer serving our best interest. The oil washes away what we are ready to let go of, and creates space for healthy re-patterning in our lives. I was skeptical that such a simple treatment could be so powerful...but it is luxurious and nourishing, and opens the door for profound self-healing. I hope to share this experience with you.✨

Book your treatment Sat/Sun/Tues.

Sliding scale $50-$108

Dear community, I hope this message finds you well. I have been sitting with the information coming in and have decided NOT to re-open at this time. I will continue to monitor the situation, and I look forward to working with you as soon as it is less of a risk (when the number of Covid 19 cases is showing a downward trend). Thank you for reaching out and checking in — I love hearing from you! And I look forward sharing healing space with you again soon. 💞

The CDC meme about holding your breath for 10 sec as a test for Cv has been widely criticized for not being scientifically based.
It is not an effective test for the virus — however, it will stimulate and upward movement of energy in the body — possibly affecting a shift to a more positive mood. I think it is good advice!
Bhastrika and kapalabhati breathing can also help prevent pneumonia.

Stay well, my friends.

Happy New Year! I’ve been doing massage for almost a decade, and I’m hoping 2020 is the year I finally get my private practice up and running!
If you’ve received a treatment from me, would you mind taking the time to post a review for me? The links to my Google, Yelp, and pages are at the bottom of this post.
I have only 1 review 🤣 so your feedback would be so appreciated ❤️❤️❤️

Also, I have some exciting news:

I am finishing my Craniosacral 2 certification at the end of this month — and I’m offering discounted CS treatments until Jan 23!

And I have a new business address!
123 Girard SE (on Silver in Nob Hill)

I am also offering traditional Ayurvedic treatments — Abhyanga and Marma Therapy (Shirodhara external basti coming soon!), cupping & acupressure, hot stones, polarity, and traditional Swedish massage, of course. I usually combine all of these modalities.

My sliding scale is $38-$108 and I have openings every day next week. Message me and let’s get you on the schedule!

I love this image from Dr. Lad’s textbook (vol 1 p 195) showing how our energetic bodies extend beyond our physical form. Did you know you have a sheath of bliss surrounding your entire body? It’s almost three feet (!) away from your skin. Can you sense it?
