1. What is Abhyanga?
Abhyanga, loosely translated as “application of oil onto the body,” is arguably the most important treatment in Ayurveda, India’s ancient system of medicine. It is a cleansing, relaxing, balancing, and restorative Ayurvedic massage using herbally medicated oils. This rhythmic massage requires uniform pressure applied all over the body from head to toe, inducing a profound sense of well-being and rejuvenation. It supports transdermal absorption of nutrients from the oils and herbs, nourishing tissues and helping the skin—the body’s largest organ—effectively eliminate toxins. Regular Abhyanga can treat a wide range of disorders, slow down signs of aging, and keep the body detoxified.
