Abhyanga (Ayurveda Massage)
A traditional Ayurveda warm herbal oil massage that uses rhythmic long strokes on limbs such as your arms or legs and circular motions over rounded areas such as your head or joints. It is specifically designed to nourish and revitalize the body tissues (dhatus), balance the body doshas, mainly to pacify Vata dosha.
Pressure is applied on specific points which stimulates various energies (prana), aids release of toxins, reduces pain and stiffness. Medicated herbs rejuvenate the tissue and help eliminate toxins, bringing a sense of wellbeing. It is used both as a pre-procedure therapy and as an independent treatment.
