At Thermae Retreat, Energy Work refers to a broad range of therapies that all have a commonality; Frequency. Each of us consists of a physical body capable of thoughts and emotions, but we also have an energetic system that supports and nourishes the physical, emotional and mental. This energetic life force is known in traditional Chinese medicine as qi (pronounced CHEE); In the Judeo-Christian tradition, it is called spirit, and in Ayurvedic medicine it is represented in the doshas. All of our systems are tightly integrated. You cannot treat one without considering the others, so our approach, as always, is holistic.
The integration between our emotions and our physical body is obvious to anyone who has gone through a period of great stress. Emotion-altering techniques such as meditation and visualization can actually impact the physical body, triggering its ability to self-heal. The energetic component in all of this is less commonly understood. This is where the expertise of our Energy Work practitioners can add a great benefit to your overall health.
At Thermae, we believe that caring for your energy field should be an integral part of your health and wellness regime, much like getting a dental checkup. We encourage you to visit one of our Energy Work practitioners on a regular basis to clear environmental impurities, release unwanted emotions, clarify your mind, and generally feel a bubbling up of joy. We know that in the physical body, new energy cannot enter unless old energy is released out - We release what no longer serves our highest good and allow the energy that does to enter and integrate.
I may look outside to ponder my path, but the directions are always within.
The practice of sound bathing, as the name suggests, is the practice of being deeply immersed in sounds and vibrations that have the power to cleanse and heal. A journey of self discovery, a sound bath is a very powerful experience that can cleanse your soul and restore your balance. Sound has a great influence on our emotions and health by affecting every cell in the body with frequencies that work with our own. Just as the frequency of a classical singing voice can shatter a glass, the frequency of sounds during this experience can help release emotions/energy that no longer serve you, and allow your mind and body to sink deeply into a relaxed state. This is a beautiful experience and is also recommended to add to any massage or healing.
Please join us during the week in the Shambala Shala in Thermae’s garden for Sound Bathing Ceremonies with guest vocalists and musicians, Meditations, Group Family Constellations, and Ecstatic Dance. Sound Membership is available for unlimited ceremonies and special pricing on experiences and workshops each month.
This experience is designed to combine the benefits of massage, energy work and sound therapy. Swedish or deeper pressure massage combined with warm towels with essential oils release tight, tense muscles. Penetrating frequencies from the gong, crystal bowls and various healing instruments bring about the transition of cellular realignment through the medium of sound. The combined power of these healing arts help the body, mind and spirit let go of stagnant energy while restoring an overall sense of serenity and well-being.
Shirodhara is a classical Ayurvedic therapy that involves gently pouring warm herbal-infused oil down the forehead, into the scalp finally dripping down the hair before being captured in a bowl and later jarred for your personal use. The name comes from the Sanskrit words "shiro" (head) and "dhara" (flow). This therapy is particularly revered for its ability to relieve stress and has a multitude of benefits. You feel a slow moving warmth caress your head, and enter a relaxed mental and physical state while the sound of sound bowls gently play around you.
Benefits of Shirodhara:
Enter the portal of self discovery. Allow Angelina to guide you into a connective, immersion journey to Mother Venus. Explore the parts of beauty, relaxation and self-care; indulge in all things You. Take a moment to slip into stillness, and regain a dormant memory that was embedded into your consciousness unknowingly and sometimes, unwillingly. Her wonderful energy and support grounds you on the journey.
Light body alignment assisted by channeled healing through light language and light codes, reiki and integrated energy therapies
Rest into a sacred space that gently pushes your edges and guides you to expand. In this space you are supported to release limiting programs, resolve energetic distortions, and restore your crystalline blueprint.
This session is recommended for the Soul who has awoken their energy body and is seeking to deepen their understanding of their unique Soul journey.”
Lisa is available to book privately or small group reiki sessions, in addition to her Crystalline experience.
Crystalline Clearing Massage – You will begin your massage with a 30 minute experience that will set sacred space by taking you to a surrendered state of being. Feel the alignment to the energy body, and allow it to ground into the physical body, now opening up to a more receptive, deeper relaxation experience during the massage. As you feel our melted body sinking deeper into the soft massage bed your 60 minute Swedish massage takes over with long, deep strokes, healing essential oils and a warm stone, you are taken away to your surrendered state, allowing the release of emotions and pain that no longer serve you.
This session is a journey with your practitioner and your highest self working together to align, center and connect with your sacred life force; which supports the process of gently uncovering unconscious patterns. You will access your inner healer to assist in clearing blocks on your mental, emotional, spiritual and physical levels. This life force energy courses through pathways in the body called Chakras in Buddhism, known in traditional Chinese medicine as qi (pronounced CHEE); In the Judeo-Christian tradition, it is called spirit, and in Ayurvedic medicine it is represented in the doshas. Having balanced chakras and biochemical pathways is not only vital, but necessary for restoring proper energy flow. Gaining self-awareness and understanding your connection to all of life is a powerful tool in your transformation.
Emotions are energies showing up to guide us
Reiki is a life force energy to improve one's health and quality of life. It has a spiritual component in its healing. 'Rei' is the Japanese word for 'Higher Power' and 'ki' is the life force energy. Reiki treatment increases your supply of life force energy. It promotes relaxation, makes you feel at peace, and reduces your stress. You start moving toward your unique physical, mental, and spiritual balance, and your body's own healing mechanisms begin to function more effectively. Reiki is administered by the hands, placed lightly on or near the body of the patient. The patient then experiences feelings of relaxation, mental clarity, pain relief, decreased anxiety, and a sense of well-being. Research has shown that this occurs because the activity of the parasympathetic autonomic nervous system in the patient increases significantly.
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a light-touch approach that can create dramatic improvements in your life. It releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain and dysfunction and improve whole-body health and performance. Few body structures have more influence over your health and well-being than your central nervous system. And few body systems have more impact on your central nervous system than the craniosacral system – the soft tissues and fluid that protect your brain and spinal cord.
You endure stresses and strains and your body absorbs them. But your body can only handle so much tension before the tissues begin to tighten and potentially affect the brain and spinal cord. Unfortunately, this can compromise the function of the central nervous system and nearly every other system in your body.
CST releases those tensions to allow the entire body to relax and self-correct by using a gentle touch to evaluate your internal environment. By freeing the central nervous system to perform at its best, CST naturally eliminates pain and stress, strengthens your resistance to disease, and enhances your health and well-being.
NeuroCranial Restructuring ® (NCR) is a profound and unique cranial technique that facilitates the cranium, skeletal, muscular, and neurological systems to align, eliminating pain and restoring function and mobility to the body.
Benefits include: elimination of headaches, head/neck/back pain, a wider more symmetrical face that allows for better breathing and decreased sinus congestion and infections, septum deviation straightening without surgery, increased range of motion in the neck and back, improved posture, less wrinkles, improved mood and better sleep.
Topical Basti, a revered Ayurvedic therapy, involves the application of warm, medicated oil over specific areas of the body to provide deep, therapeutic benefits. This treatment is particularly effective for targeting localized pain and discomfort, utilizing dough dams placed on areas like the back, neck, or shoulders to hold the warm oil. As the oil penetrates the skin, it works to soothe and heal the underlying tissues. This method is especially beneficial for alleviating back pain, enhancing spinal flexibility, and addressing neck and shoulder tension. The warmth and properties of the oil facilitate deep muscle relaxation and improved circulation, offering significant relief from physical discomfort.
Kati Basti is a specialized Ayurvedic technique focused on alleviating pain and discomfort in the lower back and sacral region. This therapeutic procedure involves the formation of a small well at the lumbar area using dough made from chickpea and whole wheat flour. Warm, herbal infused oil is then carefully poured into this well and retained inside for a specific period. The warm oil penetrates the skin, soothing and lubricating the soft tissues and muscles around the lower back. This has been shown to reduce pain, stiffness, and inflammation. Kati Basti is particularly beneficial for conditions like lumbar spondylosis, sciatica, and other spinal disorders, promoting healing and enhancing mobility
Prushtha Basti is an Ayurvedic technique targeted at relieving discomfort and ailments in the middle back area. Similar to Kati Basti, this treatment involves creating a reservoir made chickpea and whole wheat dough that encircles the affected middle back region. Warm, herbal infused oil is then poured into this dough well and maintained at a steady temperature. The oil seeps deeply into the skin and muscles, offering a soothing effect that helps to alleviate muscle tension, stiffness, and pain in the middle back. Prushtha Basti is especially helpful for middle-back issues such as intervertebral disc bulges, muscle spasms, and chronic back pain, facilitating improved flexibility and overall back health.
Hrid Basti is an Ayurvedic therapy where warm, medicated oil is poured into a dough reservoir on the chest to soothe the heart region. This treatment strengthens heart muscles, improves circulation, and alleviates stress and emotional distress. It's beneficial for those with cardiovascular issues, respiratory problems, and emotional imbalances, offering both physical and emotional relief.
Janu Basti involves placing warm, medicated oil in a dough well around the knee to provide deep, soothing nourishment. This procedure lasts about 20-30 minutes and is ideal for enhancing joint flexibility, reducing pain and stiffness, and improving circulation. It's especially beneficial for those experiencing arthritis, knee injuries, or chronic pain in the knee area.
Chakra Basti involves placing warm, medicated oil within a dough well over a key chakra point, typically the navel and heart. This focused application nurtures the corresponding chakra, enhancing energy flow and spiritual balance. At the navel, it stimulates the Manipura chakra, boosting personal power and emotional clarity. When applied at the heart, it nurtures the Anahata chakra, fostering compassion, self-love, and emotional healing. Chakra Basti is particularly beneficial for aligning spiritual energies, promoting inner peace, and supporting deep emotional cleansing.
Yakrut Basti involves placing warm, medicated oil within a dough well over the liver for 20-30 minutes. This treatment is focused on enhancing liver function, crucial for detoxification and metabolic health. Physiologically, it supports bile production and improves digestion, aiding in the breakdown of toxins and reducing liver-related issues such as jaundice and hepatitis. On a psycho-spiritual level, the liver is associated with the processing of emotions like anger and self-criticism. Yakrut Basti helps soothe these emotions, fostering emotional release and promoting a sense of peace and self-acceptance. This dual action supports both physiological detoxification and emotional wellbeing, contributing to overall health and harmony.

Red Light Therapy, also known as photobiomodulation and low level light therapy, uses red low-level wavelengths of light for a variety of health and wellness benefits.
In the early 1990s, Red Light Therapy was used by scientists to help grow plants in space. They found that the intense light from red LEDs promoted the growth and photosynthesis of plant cells.
Red light was then studied for its ability to increase energy inside human cells. The human body needs to make ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) cellular energy to function and survive. Red and near infrared wavelengths of natural light stimulate the mitochondria in our cells. The mitochondria turn the light into usable energy for our bodies through the process of cellular respiration. Thermae's Clearlight® Red Light Therapy, combines powerful red light (650nm) and near infrared (850nm) wavelengths to offer you the best therapy available today.
VARIABLE OPTICS™ LIGHT THERAPY
Thermae's Red Light Therapy is the only red light therapy unit available using Variable Optics™. Most other light therapy units have a single optical output at 30 degrees. This limits the amount of light absorbed by the human body.
The light receptors in our skin absorb the Red and Near Infrared light. With a single optic there is a single acceptance angle. With our Variable Optics technology we use a mix of 7 to 60 degree optics creating multiple cross acceptance angles of the light waves. This allows the light to travel better into our cells and offer more benefit.
Our Variable Optics technology allows you to maximize the benefits of light therapy in every session. This technology is only available with Thermae's Clearlight Red Light Therapy.
