abhyanga oil massage
This popular ayurvedic massage is seen as an essential part of an ayurvedic lifestyle. The full body massage provides a feeling of stability and warmth that is beneficial to all dosha types and promotes longevity and wellness.
Depending on whether you have a Vata, Pitta, or Kapha constitution our ayurvedic practitioner will prepare ayurvedic oils using medical herbs specific to a person’s dosha type. The warm oil is then applied from head to toe using long circular strokes towards the heart and organs of elimination. This technique helps loosen the toxins in the body in order for them to be properly eliminated. Proper absorption of the medicinal oils allows for a truly healing and relaxing experience.
