A traditional Ayurvedic approach to bodywork

Abhyanga is a traditional Ayurvedic oil massage using warm herbal oils selected according to your constitution, current state, and individual needs.

The rhythmic application of oil is traditionally used in Ayurveda to nourish the body, calm the mind, support relaxation, and promote a sense of grounding and well-being.

Before your massage, we briefly review how you are feeling and any relevant concerns so that the oil and approach can be selected appropriately for your session.

Personalized to You

Ayurveda does not approach massage as one-size-fits-all. Your session may vary according to your constitution, current state, season and goals.

Warm Ayurvedic herbal oils are selected individually, and the rhythm, pressure and techniques used during the massage can be adjusted according to your needs.

Massage services are performed by our Licensed Massage Therapist, Deborah Weaver, with Ayurvedic guidance and oil selection incorporated into the session.
