Treatment
Abhyangam
The Classical Ayurvedic Oil Massage
About this treatment
Abhyangam is the foundational therapeutic massage of Ayurveda. Two trained therapists apply medicated herbal oils — chosen specifically for your dosha and condition — using rhythmic, synchronised strokes that follow the natural channels of the body.
Practiced in Kerala for thousands of years, Abhyangam is far more than a relaxation massage. It is a deeply medicinal therapy that loosens accumulated toxins (ama), softens the tissues, prepares the body for further detoxification, and quietens an overworked nervous system.
