Derived from two Sanskrit words ‘Abhi’ and ‘Anga’, the Abhyangam massage is a unique aspect of Kerala Ayurvedic treatment and therapies, in which herbal or medicated oil is used to soften the tissues and release it of any tensions or ama(toxins). The word Abhi signifies ‘towards’ and Anga signifies the implications of Abhi, alluding to the movement of the massage in synchronization with the direction of arterial blood flow. Whether it is to resolve your issues with being overweight, insomnia, fatigue and other vata diseases or for glowing skin, this strong but gentle oil massage will be a good treatment. With a certain amount of pressure in specific directions which corresponds to the blood circulation this massage can do wonders for your body.
