Oil massage to rejuvenate and detoxify your body-Abhyangam
This is an ayurvedic practice where a full body massage therapy is given with medicated warm herbal oils to rejuvenate, detoxify and stimulate your senses. Abhyangam is considered one of the most effective procedure to remove stress and strain, improve immunity, eyesight, sound sleep and vitality. Also, it improves skin lustre and leaves you with a flawless glowing skin.

Oils for Abhyanga
It should be borne in the mind that Abhyanga is both a therapeutic and preventive procedure to balance Vata and Pitta dosha levels. Based on the seasonal conditions and individual Tridoshas – Vaata, Pitta & Kapha Doshas, our Ayurvedic Doctor makes careful selection of medicated oil to achieve intended results.
- Mahamasha Tailam – For severe Vata and Pitta Dosha imbalance conditions and to treat neurological ailments.
- Bala Tailam – suitable for Vata doshas and mainly used to bolster muscle strength.
- Dhanwantharam Tailam – A combination of more than forty ingredients, it is suitable for both Vata and Pitta Doshas
- Karpasasthyadi Tailam – For Vata Dosha Imbalance conditions such as neuro-muscular ailments.
Again based on the body conditions, these oils are used as such or in combination of carrier oils. While sesame and almond oils are suitable to rectify Vata Doshas, coconut and olive oil are employed for Pitta Doshas.
How to derive best benefits
Right from the selection of oils to time of application, everything needs to be comprehensively planned and executed to achieve good results. For instance, performing Abhyanga before taking bath encourages the removal of toxins that had accumulated overnight, it results in sound sleep when carried out before bedtime.
When Abhyanga is being performed as a therapeutic procedure for curing ailments, your Ayurvedic physician would be the best judge to select the time and composition of oils. So, apart from these conditions, what else can ensure good results?
- Necessity of oil to be in optimal temperature (slightly warmed)
- Application of oil should begin from head and proceed towards the lower limbs
- The body position should be in sitting posture(Done in 7 Postures).
- After completing Abhyanga, bath should be taken in hot water with a help of medicated soap or powder.
