Abhyanga Massage

Abhyanga massage is a popular massage technique in Ayurvedic medicine, which is an ancient holistic healing system that originated in India. In this, Ayurvedic-inspired massage at Tattva, warm herbal oils are used to massage the entire body, in a rhythmic and flowing manner. Abhyanga is a type of massage that involves gentle and uninterrupted sliding movements. This particular massage is ideal for lymphatic drainage, as it promotes the movement of white blood cells through the lymph nodes, leading to a strengthened immune system. The technique is designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress and tension, and balance the body’s energy. The warm oil penetrates the skin and nourishes the tissues, while the gentle massage strokes help to stimulate circulation and remove toxins from the body.

According to Ayurvedic tradition, Abhyanga massage can help to improve overall health and well-being by boosting the immune system, improving digestion, and reducing the risk of disease. The massage can also help to improve the quality of sleep, promote mental clarity and alertness, and reduce the symptoms of anxiety and depression. Overall, Abhyanga massage is a soothing and rejuvenating experience that can help to promote physical, mental, and emotional balance in the body.
