Hasta Abhyanga (Hand Massage with Oil)

Service Description

An Ayurvedic hand massage, or Hastabhyanga, is a potent and accessible ritual of rejuvenation. In the ancient science of Ayurveda, the hands are considered a map of our entire being, with nerve endings and marma points (vital energy points) connected to every organ and system. This simple practice of massaging warm, herbalized oils into the hands and arms offers profound, holistic benefits. Physically, the meticulous stroking and kneading motions dramatically improve circulation, bringing warmth and vitality to the extremities. It relieves the stiffness, tension, and dryness that accumulate from daily tasks, especially in our digitally-focused world. The massage soothes aching joints, enhances grip strength, and improves dexterity, offering relief for those with repetitive strain or arthritis. The benefits extend beyond the hands themselves, as improved circulation in the arms can help ease overall bodily tension. Note: The shorter massage is only for the hands.
