How does Ayurvedic massage differs from the massage given at beauty parlors, spa’s or massage parlors?
Ayurvedic massage using medicated oils (abhyanga) is a therapeutic procedure. This procedure is used independently or as a pre treatment to other panchakarma procedures. In abhyanga, whole body is massaged with specific medicated oilsdetermined by the individual needs of the patient. It nourishes and revitalizes the body tissues (Dhatu) and allows the toxins to be removed from the cells. Abhyanga has much deeper and far-reaching effects than an ordinary massage, which is typically given for relaxation purposes. Ayurlife provides therapuetic massage specific to your illness or health goals.
