Marma Abhyangam

Abhyangam is an Ayurvedic therapy that literally means oil massage. By interweaving the kalaripayattu knowledge of stimulating marma points to enhance energy flow, Ojaswi offers an enhanced Abhyangam experience. The stimulation of the marma points accelerates the body to heal itself through better flow of energy and blood through these important nodes.
