Abhynga (oil massage for the whole body)

This is one of the most basic therapeutical methods in Ayurveda. The whole body is massaged and moved around using warm oil. It is a suitable preparation for Panchakarma therapy, as well as to enhance fitness as part of a wellness therapy, or just simply for some pampering. According to Ayurveda Abhyanga makes all therapies more effective, thus it needs to precede all other therapies.
