During an Abhyanga Sarvanga massage, warm herbal oils are applied to the entire body, including the head, face, neck, shoulders, arms, hands, chest, abdomen, back, legs, and feet. The massage is typically performed in a rhythmic manner using long strokes and circular movements, aiming to nourish the skin, relax the muscles, improve circulation, promote detoxification, and balance the doshas (bioenergies) according to Ayurvedic principles.
"Abhyanga Sarvanga" is a Sanskrit term used in Ayurveda to refer to a full-body oil massage. "Abhyanga" translates to "oil massage," and "Sarvanga" means "entire body."
