Most of America views massage as a luxury. But mos Most of America views massage as a luxury. But most of the world understands that massage is a necessity that should be received regularly. 

In India, babies are massaged every day until the age of 3. Massage is traded amongst family members after a long day at work. And regular visits to professional massage therapists are made. 

They do this because they understand that our bodies work better when they aren’t tight, ridged, and in pain. 

We’re not meant to constantly carry stress in our bodies. 

Massage is a very important and crucial part of self-care!

If you dedicate 10 minutes a day to self-massage and $100 a month to professional massage, you should see an improvement in the way you mentally and physically feel!

🚨NEW SERVICE 🚨 The first time our Ayurvedi 🚨NEW SERVICE 🚨 

The first time our Ayurvedic practitioner Chelsea received a ghee eye bath, she thought "this must be what it feels like at the bottom of the bag of movie theater popcorn" 

People are often shocked when they hear that she uses ghee in her eyes in the dry winter months. But she feels that ghee lubricates her eyes better than any synthetic eye drop ever could. 

And this ghee eye bath, known as a Netra Basti, is like the ultimate eye hydration and healing treatment. 

It may seem strange to soak the eye in warm ghee. But it's wonderfully soothing. 

It's healing and relaxing. Ghee helps to nourish the eye, reduce pain or tiredness from strain, and can help in conditions like cataracts or glaucoma. 

Try something new and book yourself a Netra Basti with Chelsea next month to experience this ancient ayurvedic therapy.
