Ayurvedic oil massage, known as Abhyanga, is a traditional practice in Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine. It involves the application of warm, herbal oils to the body with rhythmic, gentle strokes. This massage aims to balance the doshas (body energies), enhance circulation, detoxify the body, relieve stress, and promote overall well-being. The specific oils and techniques used are tailored to an individual’s constitution and health needs.
