Treatment Descriptions: COMO Shambhala Massage
- A nurturing massage using our signature
pre-blended massage oil to calm the mind and
rejuvenate the body. Deep Tissue Massage - A
restorative full body massage which helps
release deeply held patterns of tension,
removing toxins, relaxing, soothing and thereby
encouraging muscles to operate at full
capacity. The techniques used in this massage
create a prolonged state of reduced muscular
tension by applying deep muscle compression and
cross-fibre friction to increase blood and
lymphatic flow. Indonesian Massage - Using
traditional Javanese essential oils- this
massage incorporates rolling and long kneading
strokes to renew the body. Thai Massage - By
applying pressure along the meridians- this
treatment unblocks trapped energy and improves
vitality. Often referred to as passive yoga, it
incorporates yoga like stretches to stretch the
joints and balance major muscle groups. Tui Na
Massage - In Chinese culture- impeded Qi,
energy flow, is considered the root of all
illness. In this ancient form of medicinal
massage, the therapist works on the bodys
channels, meridians, with pushing, Tui, and
grasping, Na. The effect is both balancing and
enlivening. Hot River Stone Massage - A
powerful therapeutic massage utilizing hot and
smooth oiled river stones. The hot stones glide
along the muscles- correcting tensions at the
deepest level. The melting sensation promotes a
profound sense of relaxation. Shiatsu - This is
a Japanese form of massage that involves
powerful stimulation of the body's pressure
points to invigorate and relax. Combined with
stretching, palming and mobilizing movements-
this massage also loosens profound muscular
tension. Indian Head Massage - Indian Head
Massage is excellent for helping to relieve
tension that builds up in the head, neck and
shoulder area as a result of stress. Includes a
gentle facial massage. Reiki - Reiki is a
method of natural spiritual healing based on
the application of guided life force energy.
Reiki treats the whole person including body,
emotions, mind and spirit and creates many
beneficial effects including relaxation and
feelings of peace and well-being. Reflexology -
Reflexology is a technique of applying gentle
pressure to the reflex points on the feet. It
brings about a state of deep relaxation to
stimulate the body's own healing process.
Accupuncture - Accupuncture is an integral
element of Chinese medicine involving the
insertion of fine needles into specific points
on the body's meridians. These are channels
through which the body's energy, or Qi,
travels. The process stimulates our healing
responses, rebalancing the body's Ying and Yang
(opposite qualities which need to be in harmony
for perfect health). The immune system is given
a powerful boost, assuaging deep-set tensions.
Javanese Royal Lulur Bath - Lulur is a beauty
ritual from Central Java's Royal Palaces. This
gentle exfoliating treatment begins with an
Indonesian Massage. A body scrub with aromatic
mixed spices precedes the application of
cooling yoghurt and a relaxing flower filled
bath, concluding with a soothing application of
body lotion. COMO Shambhala Bath - This
cleansing treatment works to gently exfoliate
and soften your skin. After dry brushing the
body, specially prepared COMO Shambhala salt
scrub infused with essential oils, macadamia
oil and oat bran is applied to the body. After
a rinse in an invigorating bath, this treatment
concludes with a relaxing COMO Shambhala
Massage. Marine Algae Therapy - This sea algae
wrap contains rich minerals and vitamins to
stimulate metabolism and boost circulation. The
skin's mineral content is also enhanced. During
the wrap, the face and the head are gently
massaged. This treatment finishes with a shower
and a relaxing COMO Shambhala Massage. Marine
Mud Therapy - This strong exfoliation with sea
salt and marine mud promotes the skin's
absorption of nourishing minerals. The warm mud
can also help relieve muscle tension. In
addition, the face and head are gently
massaged. This treatment finishes with a shower
and a relaxing COMO Shambhala Massage. The COMO
Shambhala Sun Soother - To counteract the
drying effects of sun and salt water, enjoy a
full body compress, a nurturing scalp massage,
application of after-sun lotion and ampoules
selected according to your specific skin
condition. Therapeutic Ayurvedic Massage - A
strong stimulating massage combining deep
penetrating strokes given with hands and feet
and yoga-like stretches. Through this
treatment, using massage oils and blended
Ayurvedic herbal powder, the skin is gently
exfoliated. Toxins are released while muscles
become relaxed and joints more open. Abhyanga
(AH-BEE-YANG'AH) - A rhythmic oil massage with
warm herbal powder (Ubtan) that is specific to
your dosha. Impurities and toxins are loosened,
immunity is enhanced, circulation is stimulated
and the body and mind experience deep
relaxation. Shirodhara (SHEER'O-DAH'RA) - This
unique treatment of Ayurveda for relieving
stress. After a gentle massage to relax the
neck and shoulder areas, warm herbalized oil is
poured in a steady stream over the forehead.
This profoundly calming treatment quiets both
the mind and senses, improving mental clarity
and comprehension. Swedana (SWATDAH'NAH) - An
herbal steam treatment which enhances
circulation and releases impurities through the
skin, while relieving tension and inducing
relaxation. Pizichili (PEET'SUH-CHILI) - A

perform a gentle massage. It is the most
rejuvenating massage in Ayurveda for the
promotion of positive health. Dr Hauschka

this holistic therapy. Sundari Facial And
