“The Ayurvedic practice of abhyanga, a full-body oil massage, offers numerous physical benefits including the release of muscle tension, lymphatic drainage, and nourishment of the skin from head to toe. What sets it apart from other massages is its emphasis on the skin rather than just the underlying muscles. From the choice of oils to the circulation-stimulating movements, it resembles a facial massage for your entire body, providing a deeper and more effective experience compared to regular massages.
Ayurvedic massage utilizes warm oils and focuses on specific energy points known as Marma in the body, distinguishing it from conventional spa massages. Expect a gentle and nurturing approach that prioritizes balancing your energy fields, releasing emotional burdens, and easing physical tension, rather than solely targeting muscle knots.
At the cellular level, Ayurveda’s unique approach involves warm oils deeply penetrating cells to release physical, mental, and spiritual toxins. This not only detoxifies but also promotes healing and overall well-being.”
