Ayurvedic Massage Treatments with Kat

Ayurvedic massage is a traditional Indian healing therapy that uses warm herbal oils, rhythmic strokes, and energy-balancing techniques to restore harmony in the body and mind. Based on Ayurveda, it aims to balance the body’s doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) with customized oils and pressure. This massage promotes detoxification, improves circulation, relieves stress, and nourishes the skin. It also incorporates marma point therapy (vital energy points) to enhance relaxation, boost immunity, and support overall well-being.

Abhyanga

Abhyanga is a deeply rejuvenating Ayurvedic massage that uses warm oil to nourish the body, calm the mind, and restore balance. This sacred practice awakens the life force within, aligning the physical, mental, and spiritual energies. It is melting toxins away, calming the nervous system, and restoring the body’s innate harmony. With each gentle stroke, Abhyanga helps release tension and bring harmony to both body and spirit.

Abhyanga is especially helpful for people experiencing high stress and anxiety; those who feel fatigued or low on energy, as well as those dealing with insomnia or restlessness. It is also a great practise supporting detoxification and strengthening the immune system.

Ayurvedic Massage FAQ

How is Ayurvedic massage different from other types of massage?

Unlike deep-tissue or Swedish massage, Ayurvedic massage focuses on energy flow, warm herbal oils, and rhythmic movements to harmonize the body rather than just releasing muscle tension.

What type of oil is used in Ayurvedic massage?

Kat will use sesame oil for your treatment, unless you are allergic. This will deeply nourish the skin, improve circulation, and enhance relaxation.

Is Ayurvedic massage suitable for everyone?

Yes, but if you are pregnant, have certain medical conditions, or allergies to specific oils, please consult with our therapist before booking.

What should I expect during an Ayurvedic massage?

Your therapist will use warm oil, gentle to firm strokes, and circular movements tailored to your needs. The treatment is deeply relaxing and can leave you feeling rejuvenated.

Should I shower after an Ayurvedic massage?

It’s recommended to leave the oil on your skin for some time to allow absorption. However, if needed, you can shower with warm water (avoid soap immediately).
