Sacred Stone Bodywork Therapy integrates the medicinal sciences of Ayurveda and stone bodywork. Using the concepts and principles of Ayurveda,
heated and cooled stones and a variety of warm, natural oils, this
Sacred Stone treatment is effective and successful in pacifying the vata dosha.
Sacred Stone Bodywork Therapy’s objective is to calm the excess ‘wind’ of the vata dosha.
For example, while experiencing too much movement in your stressful
life such as rushing to get out of the house to get to work or the kids
to school. Then dealing with cumbersome nature of your job; meeting
deadlines to satisfy clients; on the computer and the phone
simultaneously while eating your lunch then to rush home to take care
of family matters, etc. These daily will activities will certainly
take its toll on your body, mind and soul.
The warm oils and hot stones are used in a pattern which is conducive to eliminate excess energy from the terminal clearance or terminal ends of your body so as to soothe and calm this excess vata or
wind. The magnetic element of the heated stones unbinds muscles fibers
for a deep release of tension and the warm oils assists in healing
energy to flow in and negative energy to flow out. This treatment
increases circulation and lymphatic drainage eliminating toxins,
sedates the central nervous system and boosts organ function. Warm
oils, among other things, help with inflammation and joint pain,
strengthens the immune and nervous system and nourishes the body.
I also offers Shirodhara. Shiro means head and dhara means
flow. Warm oil is poured on the forehead in a steady flow and relieves
negative stress, soothes nerve and chemical disorders in the brain and
opens the “third eye”. It lasts approximately 1-2 minutes.
Nasya is
an oil that is applied into the nostril. Five drops which correspond
to the five elements. Nasya can aid in sinus relief, ear, migraine
headaches and assists in balancing mental instability.
In Sanskrit terms, Shila Abyhanga, means stone massage. Stones, which I have chosen or which were given to me from the New England
coastline, are metamorphic and may date back three hundred million
years. They contain mineral composites of granite and magnetite which
has a higher magnetic field enclosed in their octahedral atomic
structure. They are a microcosm of energy and life. Their magnetic
fields help balance electrical unevenness within the human microcosm.
Ayurveda is a holistic healing system of medicine. In the Sanskrit word Ayurveda Ayu means “life” and Veda means “knowing”. It is the “science of life”, and the people of India
have practiced Ayurveda for over 5,000 years. It is the science of
self healing, the science of digestion, the science of long life and
the science of life’s knowledge.
There are
five elements that live in the Ayurveda concept. Ether, Air, Fire,
Water and Earth. As in the macrocosm, these elements also live in the
human microcosm.
They manifest in man as three principles or humors known as dosha. There are vata dosha, pitta dosha and kapha dosha. Vata has Air and Ether and is a Sanskirt word meaning “what blows”. Pitta has Fire and Water and means “what cooks”. Kapha has
Earth and Water and means “what sticks”. We all have the three doshas
within our constitution. However, a person’s constitution is
determined at birth (prakruti) and never changes with one or more doshas being predominant.
The tridosha are
responsible for biological, physiological and psychological functions
of the body, mind, soul of man and thus requires a dedication of
life-long study to understanding, practice and become enlightened by
the art and science Ayurveda has to offer.
When unbalanced, the vata dosha will unsettle the other dosha. Each dosha has
its own attributes and lives in certain organs. Thus, when they are
unbalanced, it manifests within the organs and body is not at ease.
Shila Abyhanga means
oil massage. Just like the stones that I use, hot stones and warm oils
have stood the test of time. The healing science of Ayurveda has been beneficial to people for more than 5,000 years.
I am
offering you Sacred Stone Bodywork Therapy so you may experience a
gentle and peaceful breeze for your body, mind and soul.
