Abhyanga: (əbh·yänˑ·gə) Abhyanga is soothing massage performed by one or two therapists who drizzle warm herbalized oil on the body, then massage it in with brisk, often long and flowing movements. This treatment helps detoxify the body and restore its balance. The warmth of the oil and the brisk movements are designed to drive the herbs into the body, which has a detoxifying effect.
