Abhangya

Abhyanga means application and massage of medicated oil all over the body in a specific manner. This is done only by trained masseurs.
Different medicated oils are used according to the season, and the constitution of patient. The abhyang is generally followed by swedan i.e. steam bath. It is recommended in Ayurveda as a daily practice of healthy life. Abhyanga improves skin texture and complexion, relaxes the muscles, and reduces fatigue.
