Ayurvedic Foot Massage

About the Therapies

The ancient practice of Ayurvedic foot massage is known as Pada-abhyangam. Within the Ayurvedic system of medicine, this ritual holds significant importance and is often performed daily, particularly before bedtime.

Pada-abhyangam offers numerous benefits. In Ayurveda, the human body is likened to an inverted tree, where the roots correspond to the head and the hands and legs symbolize the branches. Besides, five of the 107 Marmas, or vital energy points, are situated in the feet.

Nurturing the feet is an easy way to nourish the entire body including skin and hair. Through the practice of Pada-abhyangam, individuals can enhance their health, youthfulness, energy levels, and overall well-being.

Procedure:

After a clinical examination, the Ayurveda doctor prescribes medicated oil or ghee depending on the person’s constitution and condition. The gently warmed medicated oil or ghee is then liberally applied to the heels, ankles, soles, and foot and massaged briskly into the skin.
