Abhyangam ~The mind-body healer

Abhyangam or Abhyanga is the principal healing tool and the mother of all massages in Ayurveda. It is known to have healing benefits by naturally harmonizing body, mind, and spirit. A whole-body massage with specific herbal oils to nourish and revitalize the body tissues (Dhatus) and to allow the toxins to be removed from the cells.

Abhyamgam has much deeper and more far-reaching effects than any ordinary massage using mineral oils or lotions. Abhyamgam achieves deepest healing effects by naturally harmonizing body, mind and soul. This treatment effectively detoxifies, nourishes and revitalizes your whole body to improve general wellness. It stimulates blood circulation, diminishes cellulite, enhances sleep quality, promotes vitality and reduces vata imbalances. It is recommended for the alleviation of stress, stiffness and arthritic back ache.

By calming your mind, the body relaxes and goes into a state of deep sleep.

Improves Blood Circulation

A light Abhyangam massage along with Shirodhara helps in the circulation of blood while calming the mind at the same time.
