Aahana's Holistic Health Spa

Ayurveda

'Ayur' means 'Life' and 'Veda' means 'Science'. Thus Ayurveda is the 'Science of Life'. Ayurveda helps the healthy person to maintain health and the diseased person to regain health.

According to Ayurveda, the body is made up of Tridoshas (Tri' means 'Three' and 'Doshas' mean 'Humours') – Vata is Air, Pitta is Fire and Kapha is Water. Good health means a normalcy in the Tridoshas, balance of metabolic, systemic and excretory functions, all five senses and in the mind and spirit.

We offer Ayurvedic Spa therapies that holistically rejuvenate the mind, body, and spirit. You would have a unique experience of the most potent healing effect.

An integral part of Ayurveda is the massage. We have a range of traditional Ayurveda oils that use herbs and plant extracts and are used in massages and various other wellness therapies in our Spa.

Ayurveda massage treatments bring about a balance between the body and the mind, by increasing circulation that bring more nutrition to the cells and by dislodging the body’s metabolic wastes and toxins. A good massage also lubricates the joints, tones the muscles and calms the nervous system.

Yoga

The root for the word Yoga comes from the Sanskrit word ‘Yuj’ which means the Union. Here it means the Union of the Mind, Body and Spirit, also the Union of Oneself with the Universal Self. This holistic science emphasizes that this Union is necessary for a person seeking good health and well-being. Sage Patanjali is considered as the Father of Yoga. He formulated the Ashtanga Yoga – the Yoga with 8 paths which is widely practiced today.

Yoga is particularly of importance in today’s life to prevent and cure Health disorders – the so-called psychosomatic disorders – the cause of which is mainly from the mind. In today’s life of Stress, Yoga thus acquires an imminent role.

The parts of Yoga that are mainly used in therapeutics are the Asanas, Pranayamas, Meditation, Kriyas and Relaxation techniques.

The Yoga classes at our Aahana Naturopathy Centre Spa are taught by professionally trained instructors where both individual and groups sessions are conducted.
