Targeted Ayurvedic Neuro-Muscular Oil Therapy
Shiro + Ekang Abhyangam is a specialised pair of Ayurvedic partial-body therapies designed to relieve localised neuromuscular stress, fatigue and pain through medicated herbal oil massage.
Shiro Abhyangam focuses on the head & scalp region, working on Prana Vaha Srotas and neuro-regulatory pathways.
Ekang Abhyangam is directed towards one specific affected region (shoulder / back / knee / arm / leg) to reduce stiffness, Vata pain, muscle fatigue and regional inflammation.
Both therapies nourish local tissues (Mamsa, Asthi and Majja dhatu), improve circulation & restore functional movement.
AYURVEDIC VIEW / HOW IT WORKS
• head region is seat of Prana Vayu
• joints / muscles subject to overuse accumulate Vyana Vata + Sheeta + Rukshata
