Abhyanga is a traditional Ayurvedic oil therapy in which warm oil is applied and massaged over the body using techniques described in Ayurveda. The type of oil, method of application and duration of therapy may be selected according to an individual's health needs and Ayurvedic assessment.
Abhyanga is traditionally associated with nourishment, relaxation and supporting overall wellbeing. It may also be incorporated into selected Ayurvedic treatment programs, including certain Panchakarma protocols.
At Ayushman Bhavah in Ahmedabad, Abhyanga is provided as part of a personalized Ayurvedic approach rather than as a standardized massage for every person.
During an Abhyanga session, an Ayurvedic practitioner or trained therapist applies an appropriate oil to the body using traditional massage techniques.
The choice of oil and treatment approach can depend on factors such as individual constitution, health condition, season and the purpose of the therapy.
Depending on the treatment plan, Abhyanga may be followed by other Ayurvedic procedures or a warm bath.
Abhyanga may be used as an independent Ayurvedic therapy or incorporated into a broader treatment program. In selected Panchakarma programs, Abhyanga may form part of the preparatory stage of treatment.
Whether Abhyanga is appropriate for you should be determined after considering your health status and individual treatment requirements.
Ayurvedic therapies are traditionally selected according to the individual rather than applying exactly the same approach to everyone.
During consultation, factors such as health concerns, lifestyle, constitution, age, season and treatment objectives may be considered before selecting the appropriate oil and therapy.
