Ayurvedic massage Abhyangam
What is Ayurvedic massage?
The herbal oil is carefully selected for your treatment needs. Choosing the correct herbal oil is essential to the effectiveness of a traditional Ayurvedic massage.
Depending on your condition, Ayurvedic massage can be for the full body (Sarvanga abhyangam) or for a specific area (Ekanga abhyangam).
If you have body aches, pain or stiffness, we may use specific massage techniques and kizhi treatment with Ayurvedic oils selected for pain and movement support.

Ayurvedic massage with herbalised oils
The herbal oil is carefully selected according to your treatment needs. Choosing the correct oil is important in traditional Ayurvedic massage, especially when treating aches, pain, stiffness, or tension.
In Ayurvedic tradition, herbalised oils are believed to support comfort, balance and the body’s natural cleansing processes.
Ayurvedic massage with kizhi
A kizhi is densely packed with herbal ingredients, warmed in herbalised oil and massaged over the affected area or the whole body as required.
The targeted heat of the kizhi supports deeper absorption of the herbal oil while warming and softening tissues for deeper massage work. The kizhi ingredients, herbalised oils, and massage techniques are selected based on your body, symptoms, and treatment needs.
There are many types of kizhi, and each is named after the ingredients tied into the poultice. The type of kizhi used during your Ayurvedic massage is chosen according to what is most suitable for your treatment.

Add-on treatments
Depending on the purpose of your Ayurvedic massage, other treatments may be added to this massage to enhance the effects:
Shirodhara
Shirodhara involves a continuous, gentle flow of warm herbalised oil over the forehead from a hanging pot. It promotes deep relaxation to rest and calm the mind and body. Shirodhara can be especially beneficial after an oil massage, when the body is already relaxed.
Herbal steam therapy
Herbal steam therapy uses warm steam generated from herbal decoctions to encourage perspiration. The warmth surrounds the body, helping relax the tissues, ease stiffness and support circulation.
Nasyam
Nasyam involves the administration of herbal oils through the nasal passage. Nasyam is a powerful cleansing technique of the sinuses and the effects are increased after a massage.
