Abhyanga with energizing soft powder exfoliation 

Increases Pitta to awaken the body. To raise or elevate! This detoxifying dry body massage, called Udwarthanam uses a customised herbal mixture to reduce fluid retention and draw out toxins from the body. The combined action of massage and herbs aids in improving surface circulation, keeping pores open and encouraging the elimination of metabolic wastes. This increases nutrients and oxygen to the skin to improve blood flow, promoting perspiration and aiding the overall cleansing process. This type of traditional body brushing has a remarkable effect on the appearance of the skin. Dead and dry surface cells are removed, and oil glands beneath the skin begin to lubricate the skin naturally, so the skin becomes smoother and more lustrous.

• Garshana - Optional

• Induces pitta
