Founder| Sanja Oropeza Ayurvedic Practitioner | Panchakarma Specialist|
Licensed Massage Therapist
In 2000, I began my holistic health journey with an immense belief that our bodies have the innate ability to heal itself, creating harmony within our physical, mental and emotional bodies when given the proper care and nutrients. My massage training opened a whole new world for me and my passion grew.
Influenced by my early career training in Clinical Massage Therapy, Shiatsu, Lymphatic Drainage, and Healing Touch, I combine modalities to offer a personalized experience for each guest. I share healing energy, Aromatherapy and herbal oils to create harmony in body, mind, spirit and senses.
In 2010 I started my exploration of Ayurveda and Yoga, as part of my own personal desire to achieve a deeper understanding of the body and optimal wellness. I went on to complete certifications at Karela Academy of Ayurveda as an Ayurvedic Wellness Practitioner and Panchakarma Specialist. Most recently I traveled to India for advanced training and to immerse myself in the culture and healing of Ayurveda. You can find me leading Ayurvedic detox programs, personalizing Panchakarma retreats and encouraging self-awareness for my rogis and the community.
With more than 20 years experience, my work has become very intuitive. I’m often asked, “How did you know exactly what I needed?" My response is, "Your body tells me and I listen!” I am committed to providing genuine care, helping you to understand your body's needs, and creating a platform from which you can build your personalized health program.

I highly recommend Sanja for Ayurvedic services. She is kind, compassionate and very wise. And she is amazing at holding space! I received an abhyanga treatment from her and I left feeling completely relaxed, renewed and happy!
Also, the Ayurvedic products she uses are of the highest quality!

Last spring I completed Sanjas Cultivating Wellness cleanse using Ayurvedic traditions and nutrition. I decided to deepen my cleanse experience by doing Pancha Karma with Sanja. It included 3 days of 4 hours each time that included Bodywork, treatments and a healing Kitchardi lunch.
Some of the treatments included Netra Basti, Pada Abhyanga with Tulsi Rose foot bath, herbal steam, udvarthana, Nasya, Abhyanga, and more! What a healing experience! My cleanse felt deeper and that whole body, mind and spirit were being cared for while releasing and restoring.
I felt more supported then ever during my cleanse! I felt nurtured during this time of deep self care. Sanjas knowledge of these traditions is beautiful and you feel honored to experience these ancient wisdoms. Thank you Sanja!

Sanja seriously has the healing touch, a true gift. I went in for an Ayurvedic massage and left with some tears. Somehow Sanja knew where my body needed gentle release. I have had many, many therapeutic massages but never have I left feeling so emotionally open. As if some emotions were stored in my body and the massage gently called them to the surface. Imagine that! I don't know how she does it but Sanja offers the gift of physical and emotional healing together. She told me she could feel where in my body was ready to release. It was perfectly paced, firm but gentle and so so powerfully relaxing and rejuvenating. Thank you Sanja for sharing your gifts with us!!!

Beautiful place! Received an amazing massage by Sanja. I will definitely be going back. I had so much pain in my neck/shoulders/head and arm and I feel so much better now. Sanja takes her time to figure out what you need and you can truly feel she knows what she is doing.

Sanja is the best! Been following her since the Ajasrika days- there is really no massage better out there. Her signature massage is the real deal- good luck trying to find another place that has better massages. Always very polite and communicates well.
She does appointments by email or phone calls and has locations in Orange and Long Beach.
