Ayurvedic Full Body Massages
In Ayurveda, massages play an important role in keeping the body's doshas balanced and in assisting with detoxing the body. All massages use specifically prepared oils.
During Abhyanga (Ayurvedic full body massage) Massages these special Ayurvedic oils are massaged deep into the body's tissues, to
dislodge impurities,
release muscle and nervous tensions,
improve circulations and lymphatic drainage,
improve digestion,
improve sleep,
strengthen the immune system,
reduce stress thus promoting health and wellbeing.
All oils that we are using during the massage are either produced at the Atmasantulana Village, Lonavala, or from Ayurveda Pura, London.
Traditionally the oils are cooked for several days during which they are cultivated with different herbs to be easily absorbed by the body's tissues for balance and nourishment.
What happens during a massage session?
We are going through a short questionnaire to determine,
if there are any underlying conditions or contraindications present,
which oil to use for maximum benefit.
Followed by a pulse and tongue diagnoses.
The massage itself takes about 75 minutes.
It starts at the feed, followed by hands and arms, the front of the body, the back and the face.
After all sessions a period of complete rest for about 10 min. should be observed to enable the body to absorb the massage and the oil.
1 hour after the massage a shower without soap is advised to rinse off the excess oil and toxins that the massage has drawn to the surface.
During the hours after the massage plenty of warm/hot water or herbal teas are recommended to help the released toxins to be transported into the digestive system in order to leave the body.
Please notice: This massage is unsuitable during the first 3 days of menstruation.
Price structure:
Single booking: £85
Block of 4: £300 (these need to be taken within 6 months after purchase)
