What Is Abhyanga Massage?

Abhyanga is a foundational practice in Ayurvedic medicine — the traditional healing system of India. It involves anointing the body with warm, herb-infused oils in long, sweeping motions that align with the body’s lymphatic flow and energy pathways (nadis).

Unlike deep tissue massage, Abhyanga works on the body as a whole — soothing rather than stimulating — and supporting:

  • Nervous system calm and emotional regulation

  • Lymphatic drainage and gentle detoxification

  • Joint and skin nourishment

  • Improved sleep and digestion

  • Grounded presence and energetic balance

It’s a practice of honoring the body’s inner intelligence and creating space for rest and repair.

Dana’s Integrative Ayurvedic Approach

With over 16 years of massage experience and a lifelong practice of yoga, meditation, and subtle body awareness, Dana offers Abhyanga in a way that blends tradition with deep attunement.

Her Ayurvedic sessions include:

  • Full-body warm oil massage customized for your dosha (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha imbalance)

  • Slow, rhythmic pressure to signal safety to your nervous system

  • Optional additions like marma point activation, reflexology, or scalp oiling to complete the reset

Each session is more than protocol — it’s a responsive, presence-based healing experience.
