Ayurvedic massage also known as Abhyanga and is a unique form of full body massage using medicated oils, originating in Ayurvedic medicine. It has tremendous benefits to the mind, body, skin, and immune system and is perfect for rejuvenation.
Technique:
Abhyanga is a synchronised massaging of the body towards the direction of the movement of arterial blood. In practical terms it means massaging the body in the direction of the body hair. The scientific reason for this protocol is to increase the blood flow towards the most distal parts of the body and avoid overwhelming the heart through increased venous return if the massage is done towards the heart.
