Get answers to common questions about Ayurvedic Facial With Abhyangam & Shirodhara.

You’ll begin with a brief consultation, followed by a warm full-body Abhyangam massage, herbal facial application, and Shirodhara oil flow over the forehead. Sessions include soothing ambient therapy and a short resting period for integration and relaxation.

Typical sessions last between 90 and 120 minutes, including consultation, massage, facial and Shirodhara, plus a brief post‑treatment rest. Exact duration depends on personalization and any additional therapies requested.

This therapy is not recommended for acute fever, open wounds, severe skin infections, uncontrolled hypertension, or recent surgery. Pregnant guests and those with serious medical conditions should consult their physician before booking.

For lasting benefits we recommend a series of weekly or biweekly sessions (4–6) initially, then monthly maintenance. Frequency is adjusted to your dosha, skin goals, and overall health during consultation.

Warm herbal oils are largely absorbed but may leave a light residue. We provide a gentle cleansing and offer a shower or warm towels afterward. Avoid heavy makeup for the rest of the day to let oils continue nourishing the skin.

The treatment is customizable for most skin types and ages. Sensitive skin may require patch testing and gentler oils. Children, elderly guests, or those with chronic conditions should consult our therapists for tailored modifications.
