How effective is Ayurveda massage at home for chronic neck pain? - #1385

Anonymously

I’ve been suffering from severe neck pain due to poor posture (working from home on a laptop all day). I’ve tried physiotherapy, stretching exercises, and heating pads, but the relief is always temporary. I’ve heard that an Ayurvedic massage can be really beneficial, but I’m unable to visit a spa or clinic regularly because of my schedule. Is it possible to get an Ayurveda massage at home, and does it work just as well? I’m also unsure about which oils or techniques are recommended for deep pain relief and tension release. Any advice on what kind of massage or oil I should ask for if I book a therapist to come home?

Yes, Ayurvedic massage can definitely be done at home, and it can be just as effective when done with the right oils and techniques. For neck pain caused by poor posture, a combination of warm herbal oils like Mahanarayan oil or Sesame oil can be very helpful in relieving muscle stiffness, improving circulation, and soothing tension. The technique used in Ayurveda involves deep, rhythmic strokes that help to release blockages in the muscles and joints, promoting relaxation and healing. You can also try self-massage using these oils in gentle circular motions, focusing on the neck, shoulders, and upper back. If you're booking a therapist, ask for an Abhyanga (general body oil massage) combined with targeted therapy for the neck and shoulders, which may also include the application of warm poultices or heat therapies like Kati Basti for localized pain relief. Ensure the therapist uses oils that are specific to your body type and current imbalances to get the best results.
