Guest guest Posted January 2, 2005 Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 Sat Nam Abinashi! The Ayurvedic Oil Massage is called Abhyanga. It is performed daily with warmed sesame oil (Vata), coconut oil (Pitta), or almond oil ( Kapha). The massage lubricates and tones the skin, muscles, and joints; improves circulation, helps the elimination of toxins from the blood, elevates energy levels, helps calm the mind and nerves. It promotes deeper sleep, and sharpens the mind and will help purify the skin and combat free radical damage. Use about 1/8-1/4 cup warmed oil, beginning at the head, massage the scalp, ears, face, and move downward on the body. Long bones use a long stroke, shoulders, knees, ankles, feet, a circular massage. Pay special attention to fingernails and toenails. If you are aware of the marma points you can use stimulation on those points that serve your health. After just 3-4 days of this daily ritual you will shine with good health! But don't stop there, keep it up. You may add essential oils and herbs to the oils or order medicated oils prepared specifically for your imbalance. Blessings in Health!
