Abhyanga is a deeply relaxing, full body massage performed with warm oils. Following the natural movement of Vata dosha, it aims to restore balance and wellbeing. The massage is traditionally performed with a specific number of strokes, depth and speed tailored to the condition of your body.

The massage techniques promote deep penetration of the oils into the tissues to loosen toxins, increase suppleness of the skin and body, remove fatigue, and promote strength.

This energetic treatment benefits the whole body physically, mentally, and emotionally while balancing the Doshas. Its stimulating rhythmic motion relieves rheumatic and arthritic joint and muscle stiffness, increases blood circulation, encourages quick elimination of metabolic wastes (toxins) and provides relief from anxiety, fatigue, backaches and injuries.

According to the classical texts, this massage is recommended daily to prevent ageing and degeneration process.
