About Ayurvedic Body Therapies
Why I Started This
After 20 years away from India, I came back and realized Ayurveda was missing from the usual salon vibe. For me, a real therapy isn’t just a massage - it’s when I actually meet myself. I wanted to bring that feeling back, where you walk out glowing, but more from the inside than just your skin.
What Makes My Therapies Different
- Everything is rooted in proper Ayurveda, not some watered-down version. I stick to classic methods with guidance from B.V. Pundit's Nanjangud - they’ve been doing this for over a century.
- My oils aren’t there just for smell. They’re plant-based, organic, and handpicked for real shakti (energy). You’ll feel it in your muscles, joints, and even your mood.
- The space is intentionally calm so you can disconnect from the world for a bit.
What’s on Offer
- Traditional abhyanga oil massage: Full-body, warm oils, pure rejuvenation. Great for circulation and stress.
- Ayurvedic pain relief therapies: Deep tissue if you need those knots sorted, and targeted sessions for neck, shoulder, or back pain. Sometimes I use a potli (herbal pouch) for extra relief.
- Holistic wellness body rituals: Pre-natal massages with safe medicated oils for mums-to-be, and foot reflexology that hits all the right pressure points.
How You’ll Feel After
You’ll feel lighter, both physically and mentally. Stiffness eases up, mind quiets down, and there’s a sense of reset. Toh yahi hai asli wellness (This is real wellness). No chemicals, no fake promises - just Ayurveda working the way it’s supposed to.

My Story
Namaste, I’m Gayathri. Swã is my dream—where ‘self’ meets Ayurveda. After living abroad, I came back to Bangalore and saw every salon loaded with chemicals. Hamare ajja-ajji (our grandparents), they used haldi, methi, kitchen stuff, and their skin had holatana (shine) you don’t see now. I wanted a women-centric space, all Ayurvedic, no shortcuts. Some days, progress is slow, but seeing women from Italy to Dubai walk in for real care—makes me proud. Swã is my way of giving back. Come, experience this bliss.
My Work
Ayurvedic Facials & Therapies - Kumkumadi facial therapy, Ayurvedic ghee facial, and Abhyanga body massage—all pure, plant-based, cruelty-free.
Natural Hair & Nail Care - Plant-based hair colouring and Ayurvedic nail care—no chemicals, just nature’s goodness.
Holistic, Long-Term Care - We focus on skin shakti (strength), not just glow. ‘Botox through Ayurveda’—lasting health, not quick fixes.
Inclusive & Safe Space - Women-centric, but men welcome evenings. Special packages for seniors, homemakers, and all ages.
The Swã Experience - It’s more than a treatment—calm, therapeutic, people travel far for our SWA Mantra: patience brings true results.
