Oils

SUPPORTING THE BODY’S INNER INTELLIGENCE
Ayurvedic body massage known as Abhyangha, is one important procedure for allowing the body to achieve such balance through the body’s inner intelligence. Ayurvedic body oils are traditionally prepared by using a blend of specified herbal parts, water, and oil. Ayush Herbs pays special attention to the preparation process, in which the blend is then cooked until the water has been evaporated and the oil becomes “herbalized,” preserving the value of the herbs while also using only organic and cold-pressed oils for all-oil preparations.

Abhyangha’s are specific to body types and conditions. For example, oil massages are soothing and rejuvenating to the vata type with a sesame oil base, whereas the Pitta body type benefits from moderately deep touch with a coconut oil base, and the kapha type appreciates deep-tissue massage with a base of mustard and olive oils.
