Oil Massage
Abhyanga is the name for oil massage in India or in Ayurveda. The morning abhyanga is
typically a self massage. It is one of the main ways that Ayurveda keeps us strong and
prevents us from aging. A major part of aging is the drying out of tissue that results in
slower transport of nutrients into the cell and body and toxic wastes out of the body. Oil
massage removes this dryness, removes stagnated flows and organs, and nurtures your mind
and your body. It also makes your skin look great if you use the right oil.

Every Day Body Massage

Apply oil after a
bath when the body is wet before toweling. It encourages you to moisturizes the skin
daily with natural oils. It also eliminates the need of lotions which in many
cases are made with mineral oil or other ingredient besides pure oils. This oil
is cured so it is absorbed very easily by the body and does not leave a sticky oily
residue. Use sparingly as it easily spreads over the skin.
Massage the face and ears, massaging gently. Gentle massage of the temples and backs of
the ears is especially good for decreasing stress.
Apply a little oil to your hands and massage the neck, front and back, then the shoulders.
Use the flat of the palm and the fingers
Vigorously massage your arms, using a circular motion at the shoulders and elbows and
long, back-and-forth motions on the long parts.
It is important not to be too vigorous when you get to the trunk. Using large. Gentle
circular motions massage the chest, stomach, and lower abdomen. (Ayurveda traditionally
advises moving in a clockwise direction.) A straight up-and down motion is used over the
breastbone.
Apply a bit of oil to your hands and reach around without straining to massage. The back
and spine-use up and down motions, or whatever you can do.
Vigorously massage the legs as you did the arms-circular at the ankles and knees, straight
back-and-forth on the long parts.
With the remaining bit of oil, vigorously massage the feet. Continue to use the flat of
the hand except around the toes, which you can handle with your fingers.
Then towel up. You will find you feel as if you have a daily spa and it helps keep
you rejuvenated for the day. Your body, skin and psyche knows that it is being cared
for daily. |
