Abhyangam
The Healing Oil Massage of Ayurveda
Abhyangam is one of the most renowned Ayurvedic therapies, a full-body massage using warm medicated oils applied with gentle yet firm strokes. More than just relaxation, it is designed to nourish the body, stimulate circulation, and restore balance between mind and body. Traditionally practiced for centuries, Abhyangam is a cornerstone of preventive and restorative wellness in Ayurveda.
The Experience
Your Abhyangam session begins in a calming environment with warm, herbal oil chosen for your body type. The therapist applies rhythmic strokes in seven body positions (sitting, supine, lateral, prone, etc.), ensuring complete coverage. The treatment lasts 45–60 minutes, leaving you refreshed, balanced, and deeply relaxed.
As the massage continues, you’ll feel your muscles loosen, your nerves soothed, and your mind slipping into deep relaxation. The strokes are not just physical; they are rooted in Ayurveda’s philosophy of restoring balance and energy flow.
