What Are the Benefits of Abhyanga Oil Massage, and How Does It Improve Health? - #13128
I have been reading about Abhyanga oil massage, a traditional Ayurvedic therapy that involves applying warm herbal oils to the body for relaxation and detoxification. Ayurveda suggests that Abhyanga helps in balancing the Vata, Pitta, and Kapha doshas, but I want to understand its actual health benefits and how often it should be done. Some of the commonly mentioned Abhyanga oil benefits include improving circulation, reducing stress, detoxifying the body, and nourishing the skin. But how effective is it for people dealing with joint pain, poor sleep, and high stress levels? Also, do different Ayurvedic oils provide different health benefits, such as Sesame oil for Vata, Coconut oil for Pitta, and Mustard oil for Kapha? If anyone has tried Abhyanga oil massage, please share your experience. Did it help with relaxation, better sleep, or pain relief? Also, how frequently should Abhyanga be done for long-term benefits?
