Unlike the Western idea of elements, the ancient Indian lifestyle practice of Ayurveda is based on the belief that all life forms have a "dosha", which is a unique mix of energies known as "vata", "pitta" and "kapha". Ayurveda includes the techniques of detoxification, diet, herbal prescriptions, yoga, meditation and massage therapy individualized for every person's dosha.

An ayurvedic massage helps eliminate toxins through purification, strengthens the muscle tone, relaxes and rejuvenates the body. Also known as hard body massage, Ayurvedic massages are given using hands, feet, elbows, forearms and well-oiled balls.

Ayurvedic massage involving tapping, kneading, squeezing and traditional massage strokes is done by using essential oils to suit individual doshas. The style and intensity of massage depends on the individual's need for balance and well being at the time.

How does Ayurvedic massage help?

Ayurvedic massage is designed to detoxify and cleanse the body by boosting the effectiveness of the human immune system. It thus helps to cure all diseases as well as maintain a good health leading to an improvement in the overall well-being of a person.

Ayurvedic massage involves a variety of result-proven procedures available in Ayurveda to treat severe ailments like Arthritis, Spondylitis, Lumbago, Slip Disc, Frozen Shoulder, Stress & Strain, Sciatica etc., which allopathic medicines fail to treat.
