Ayurveda offers a powerful approach to strengthening immunity by restoring balance within the body. Treatments like Abhyangam (herbal oil massage) and Pizhichil (warm oil bath) detoxify tissues and improve lymphatic circulation, which is essential for robust immunity. Nasyam, which involves nasal oil administration, clears toxins from the head and enhances respiratory function. Shirodhara and Takradhara, where medicated liquids are poured over the forehead, deeply calm the nervous system, reducing stress—a major immunity suppressor. These therapies enhance ojas, the essence of immunity in Ayurveda, by supporting digestion and vitality. Personalized regimens that include immune-boosting herbs, proper diet, and daily routines further empower the body to resist infections. With regular practice, Ayurvedic immunity care builds long-term resilience, helping individuals stay strong, energized, and protected in the face of seasonal or environmental challenges.
Ayurvedic Massage, known as the Abhyanga or Abhyangam, is one of the most important dincharyas (daily regimen) mentioned in the classics for achieving good health and longevity. It includes a full body massage done using herbal oils that have several health benefits. Experts believe that many of the prevalent modern-day massage techniques are the modified forms of Abhyangam.
The health benefits of Abhyangham-massage are mentioned in the Ancient Ayurvedic text Ashtanga Hridaya. It is believed to prevent Ageing, reduce Fatigue, and also diminish the effects of aggravated Vata Dosha.
Abhyangam can be performed in several classical positions. At Rudveda, it is done in 7 different classical positions with long flowing strokes. Some Ayurvedic centres perform it in 4 positions. The number of strokes used and amount of pressure applied during massage varies based on the individual’s requirements and ‘Prakriti.’ The herbal oil used for it is customised as per the patient’s Prakriti and presenting conditions. Ayurvedic Massage can be performed as a stand-alone therapy or as a precursor to other therapy regimen; it can be performed by a single therapist or by two therapists working in synchronisation.
Ayurvedic massages use synchronised motions to stimulate nerve endings to increase blood circulation, thereby channelising early elimination of toxins from the body. The herbs in the medicated oils rejuvenate the tissue and play a vital role in the elimination of toxins and bring a feeling of wellbeing. The lukewarm herbal oil used in Ayurvedic massage stimulates nerve endings thereby improving peripheral blood circulation. The specific long flowing strokes improve the lymphatic flow and promote early elimination of toxins from the body.
