The body massage oil used in this traditional Ayurvedic foot massage is prepared using medicinal plants that originate from auspicious mountains in South India. I have been taught how to prepare the body oil. The head oil recipe and preparation still remains a tightly kept secret within my teacher’s family.

The medicinal body oil is a tri-doshic oil and is suitable for use on all body types. It subtly balances the Vata, Pitta and Kapha doshas. The plant essences and extracts used in the oil have properties that

• give power to the blood and lympathic systems,
• promote good joint movement,
• enhance the skin,
• suck waste out of the body,
• build strength in the body, and
• balance the 3 doshas.
