4 alternative spa treatments at El Monte Sagrado


 

  1. Life-reading massage

    A full-body massage with a twist: While giving the rubdown, the practitioner offers intuitive insights on your life’s destiny.
  2. Raindrop massage

    The practitioner dispenses essential oils along the spine like drops of rain to alleviate spinal misalignments.
  3. Rapid eye technology

    Using a bit of technology (goggles that flash colored lights in your eyes and a “Chi” machine that moves your body like a fish), this treatment puts you in a simulated REM state. Devotees claim the session helps release trapped energy in the body and heal emotional stress. 
  4. Shirodhara

    In this Ayurvedic therapy, the therapist pours warm oil onto your forehead—a process meant to purify your body and relieve insomnia, tension, and anxiety.
