Ayurvedic Massages: A Path to Holistic Healing and Rejuvenation
Table of Contents
Ayurvedic massages are an integral part of Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of holistic medicine. Rooted in the principles of balancing the doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), these therapeutic treatments are designed to rejuvenate the body, calm the mind, and enhance overall well-being (Sharma & Patel, 2018). At EliteAyurveda, we emphasize personalized Ayurvedic massages tailored to individual needs, ensuring a comprehensive healing experience (Hullanavar, 2021).

Key Principles of Ayurvedic Massages:
Dosha Balancing: Tailored oils and techniques are selected based on the individual’s doshic constitution (Prakruti) and current imbalances (Vikruti) (Sharma & Patel, 2018).
Detoxification: Promotes the elimination of toxins (Ama) through enhanced lymphatic drainage and circulation.
Energy Flow: Activates energy channels (Nadis) to restore vitality and balance (Doe, 2019).
