Ayurveda acknowledges that seasonal changes affect different people in different ways, and that winter is typically considered to be a season high on Kapha and Vata, causing Kapha and Vata dominant individuals to feel the harsh effects of the season. You can help yourself by booking in to Spa Ayurda to experience one of their massages, or take their advice on the importance of a daily self-massage, especially during the cold months.
Ayurvedic Massage is an integral part of total wellbeing, and regular massage helps to improve the energy flow throughout the body. It’s primary aim is to stimulate the release of toxins from body tissue and helping them to be flushed out of the body. These toxins accumulate due to our busy and stressful lives, which wear away at us, both physically and mentally.
The key benefits of Ayurvedic massage include increased circulation, especially to nerve endings, and slowing the ageing process by improving skin texture. Other key benefits are the release of mental and physical fatigue to promote better sleep, and toning of the muscles, calming the nerves and lubrication of the joints. You can also expect increased energy levels throughout the day, so in many ways it is an amazing experience that does wonders for your overall health and wellbeing.
Ayurveda means “Science of life” and is an ancient holistic tradition that unites mind, body and spirit. These wellness-enhancing rituals are uniquely designed to detoxify, purify and bring balance, well-being and energy to the body and mind. They release physical tension, harmonise these energies, and are deeply nourishing, bringing serenity and peace to every cell of your body.
If you want to take it a step further, book in for a treatment at the Spa for a fortnightly or monthly massage as part of your winter wellness ritual, so with this in mind, please take a moment to find out more about spa treatments and facial treatments by visiting the website at www.spaayurda.co.nz .
