What is Abhyanga Massage?
Ayurveda seeks to gently re-balance your body and mind, restoring them to their original state of equilibrium through massage, traditional therapeutic body treatments, internal cleansing, herbal prescriptions, lifestyle modifications and dietary advice.
Abhyanga is a massage that's done with warm oil. The oil is applied on the entire body, from the scalp to the soles of your feet. It's the most popular massage in Ayurveda, a traditional system of medicine from India.
The oil is the central component of this practice. When combined with massage strokes, it’s thought to promote overall health and wellness.
