Anyhanga is a unique form of massage, originating in Ayurvedic medicine.  Ayurvedic massage has tremendous benefits to the mind, body, skin and immune system.  It involves copious amounts of medicated heated oils using long strokes all over the body which calms vata disorders such as stiffness, dry muscles and joints.  An additional 15 minute Swedana (steam) accompanies after the massage, allowing medicated oils to penetrate through the skin to heal the body from the inside.

Relieve pain in the knee or bak or neck.  A warm pool of medicated oil is applied directly to either the dacrum, back of the neck or knee.  Provides deep tissure relaxation through heat as well as the addition  of natural, relaxing Ayurvedic herbs to the warm oil.  You will feel the full benefits of the painkilling properies of the medicated warm oil used in Kati (back), or Janu (knee), or Greeva (neck) Basti after a few session.
