Abhyanga Massage in Maastricht
Ayurvedic Full-Body Massage with Warm Oil
Abhyanga massage is a traditional Ayurvedic full-body massage originating from India. Ayurveda is an ancient system of health and wellbeing, with a history of approximately 5,000 years. The Sanskrit word Ayurveda means “knowledge of life” — Ayur means life and Veda means knowledge.
Abhyanga is one of the traditional Ayurvedic massage techniques. It is a soothing full-body oil massage using warm oil and is designed to promote deep relaxation, body awareness and a sense of balance between body and mind.
What is Abhyanga Massage?
During an Abhyanga massage, warm oil is applied to the body using flowing massage techniques. The massage traditionally works with the concept of Agni, the Sanskrit term for “digestive fire.” Within Ayurveda, digestion is understood more broadly as the processing of physical, mental and emotional experiences.
The combination of warm oil, rhythmic massage and focused attention creates a deeply relaxing experience and encourages you to reconnect with your body.
Your Abhyanga Massage in Maastricht
Your session begins with a relaxed introduction over a cup of fresh herbal tea. Where appropriate, the tea can be adapted to your individual needs and the circumstances.
The tea is traditionally chosen to support Agni and helps create a calm transition into the massage. It is enjoyed by both the person receiving the massage and the practitioner.
This is followed by approximately 1.5 hours of full-body massage with warm oil.
The oil is usually based on organic sesame oil, a traditional Ayurvedic massage oil. Depending on individual circumstances, the oil can be adapted, for example in relation to allergies, hormonal considerations or the season.
Relax and Reconnect
An Abhyanga massage offers time to slow down, relax and become more aware of your body. The combination of warm oil, flowing massage movements and a calm environment makes it a peaceful experience for both body and mind.
