What Are the Different Types of All Massage Techniques in Ayurveda for Healing and Relaxation? - #14348
I have been researching Ayurvedic massage therapies, and I keep coming across various treatments that offer stress relief, muscle relaxation, and deep tissue healing. However, I am unsure what the different types of all massage techniques in Ayurveda are and which one is the best for specific conditions. Some of the most well-known Ayurvedic massage therapies include Abhyanga, a full-body oil massage for detoxification and circulation, Pizhichil, which involves continuous warm oil pouring over the body for rejuvenation, Kizhi, a herbal pouch therapy for muscle and joint pain relief, and Udvartana, a dry herbal powder massage for weight loss and lymphatic drainage. Many Ayurveda centers also offer Shirodhara, where medicated oil is poured on the forehead for mental relaxation and stress relief. However, I want to know whether these massages provide long-term benefits or only short-term relaxation. For those who have experienced Ayurvedic massage therapies, which technique provided the best muscle relaxation, stress relief, and overall healing effects? Would love insights into the best Ayurvedic massage techniques and whether they provide lasting health improvements.
