How Abhyanga Massage is Performed:
Selection of Herbal Oil: First, ayurvedic experts assess the patient’s pakriti (body constitution) and health condition. It helps to select the perfect herbal oil according to their body type.
Preparation of Oil: Oil is gently warmed at a suitable temperature because it penetrates deeper into tissues and muscles. It enhances blood circulation and releases stiffness.
Application of Oil: Therapists evenly apply oil over the entire body, starting from the scalp and moving downward. They start a gentle massage with synchronized and rhythmic strokes using palms and fingers.
Attention to Marma Points: We mainly focus on Marma points—vital energy points that rejuvenate the internal organs and stimulate the natural energy flow.
Warm Water Bath: After the massage is completed, the patient is allowed to rest for a while so the body can fully absorb the oil. Then, a warm water bath is recommended, which removes excess oil and supports detoxification.
