YOGA SPA TREATMENTS

 

Sharon offers unique yoga-based spa experiences in the beautiful and relaxing environment of Mookshi Wellness Center in Regent Square (4-blocks from clay tennis courts in Frick Park).   Call to schedule your yoga spa experience today: 412-855-5692.

Yoga Nidra
After doing some gentle yoga to release tension and create better mind-body connection, Sharon will help you come into a supported relaxation position using pillows and blankets.  Once the physical body is relaxed, Sharon will verbally guide you into a deep “yogic sleep” where you will experience profound relaxation.  You will be allowed to rest in silence for 15-20 minutes after the yogic sleep is induced and then gently woken.  The experience ends with a warm cup of tea and a sweet treat.  This is a one hour and fifteen minute treatment: $125

Aromatherapy, Mantra, Mudra
Allow Sharon to choose a perfect healing scent, mantra and hand pose for you to use to center mind, body and spirit.  You will practice the techniques together for you to use anytime that you need them.   This is a one hour and fifteen minute treatment for $125.  If you wish to purchase the scent used during your treatment, this is an additional charge to the treatment itself.

Energy Balance
Sharon offers eight simple physical Chinese yoga exercises followed by a deep Daoist meditation for healing organs, relaxation and healing.  You will leave feeling grounded, rejuvenated and completely relaxed.  Regular treatments will support the endocrine system and optimum functioning of lungs, heart, liver, spleen and kidneys.  Other energy support exercises will be suggested as needed.  This is a 75-minute experience for $125.

Beautiful Belly Adventure
Let go of the tight feeling you have through the hips, thighs and pelvis.  Tight psoas can be felt as low back pain, hip pain or a stomach that “pooches out” no matter how many abdominal exercises you do (actually, you may be making the situation worse with your abdominal exercises).   Maybe you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome or have digestion programs or chronic constipation?  Whatever your “issue,” this yoga-based spa treatment is exactly what you need to feel strong at the core with a healthy belly.  Sessions start at $125 for a single session and $600 for a pack of six sessions.

HOW DO WE WORK TOGETHER?

If you live in Pittsburgh or surrounding suburbs, then we can meet together in person in a beautiful treatment room at Mookshi Wellness Center (401 Biddle Avenue, 2nd Floor above Biddle’s Escape Cafe in Regent Square).

If you live anywhere else in the world, then we can work together using the power of the internet making geographical location and distance irrelevant.  You will need access to the internet and SKYPE or we can use Google to “hang-out.”

WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU COACH PEOPLE TO DO?

The mind and body are always aligned, but sometimes we start living as if this is not the case.  In mind body therapy, I use a variety of techniques to help you feel more connected in mind and body. I choose the techniques that I think will be most helpful to you in meeting your goals: relaxation, mindful movement, breathing practices, mindful eating and meditation are common skills that I instruct my clients in using to support their own well-being.  In addition, I offer instruction in planning menus, improving quality of sleep, using a basal thermometer to track menstrual cycles and other practical and specific lifestyle skills that support your goals.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?

Most women see evidence of benefits to our work together within 6-sessions. In general, the lifestyle changes including diet, exercise and meditation have both immediate benefits and women find that they are able to meet their original goals that were identified during the initial consultation between 6-months to one year.  This is an empowering process where you learn how to improve the quality of your life.  Once you learn the skills, they are yours to keep and use forever.

DISCLAIMER

During our initial consultation,  I will want to make sure that you have sought out appropriate medical care and diagnosis to rule out any medical conditions, illness or disease that can cause pain, irregular cycles, bloating and other symptoms as described above.  I am not a doctor and offer holistic lifestyle consultations and support for women who have chronic reproductive organ and system health concerns that are not treatable through bio-medicine.  While rare, there are serious conditions that can cause similar symptoms to PMS or PCOS, irregular cycles and infertility.  My advice is not meant to replace professional medical care and I will never recommend that you stop taking any prescribed medication or treatment plan that has been prescribed by a doctor or mental health professional.  If you have not already had an exam and evaluation by a medical professional regarding your condition, I will recommend that you do so as soon as possible in our initial consultation.
