Abhyanga warm oil head and body Massage

From an Ayurvedic physiological perspective, the skin is an organ of assimilation and elimination that has a continuous relationship with the gastrointestinal tract, internal organs and the nervous system. Abhyanga is the external application of therapeutic and rejuvenating oils to the head and body with specific movements to lubricate, soften, release blockages and toxins, and improve lymphatic and cardiac circulation. This helps to prevent premature ageing, improve complexion and relax the body, mind and senses thereby promoting a general sense of acceptance, love and gratitude. It is also useful in relieving muscle stiffness, sciatica, chronic fatigue, dry skin, constipation/bloating, diseases of the nervous system, tremors, Reynaud’s syndrome, osteoarthritis and various neuromuscular conditions.

  • Counteract ageing, improve the lifespan
