Abhyanga massage is an integral part of Ayurvedic medicine. It is today the most popular of Indian massages. In India, it is the most direct way to harmonize the vital energy of the body, as it not only implements various manual techniques but also the properties of the different oils, plants or aromas used throughout the massage.
One of the basic characteristics of abhyanga massage is the emphasis on the concept of energy (prana). From there emerges an awareness of the need for a free and harmonious flow of energy to stay healthy. It is a total body massage, at the same time soft, invigorating and rhythmic. It is practiced on the floor or on a massage table. This massage is very effective in reducing nervous tension, improving digestion and stimulating blood circulation.
