Detox and Relax with Svedhana

Svedhana (alone $30) really applies to any treatment that causes perspiration. Lepa, herbal plaster, $15 to $30, can cause some localized sweating. A treatment that is a favorite with anyone who has ever had it is Pinda Sveda . Pinda svedhana is a type of hot massage that is done with cooked grain and herbs.

Followed by a shower and steam….incredible! Cost for one therapist is $65; cost for two therapists is $99.
