Ayurveda Yoga Massage

AYM is a full body treatment that fuses together elements of deep tissue massage, assisted yoga-based stretches (passive yoga) and breath-work to open up the body for an experience of total rejuvenation. The entire yoga massage treatment takes place on a mattress on the floor, which allows me to use both my hands and feet for a highly effective technique to perform the oil massage and yoga-based stretches.

A small amount of oil is mixed with a scrubbing powder called Calamus, an Ayurvedic herbal remedy that is used as part of the treatment to stimulate the skin and pull out toxins from the body thanks to improved circulation, it’s optional.

An Ayurvedic Yoga Massage session typically takes between 60 and 90 minutes and is tailored to match individual needs for a treatment that brings about a sense of openness and wellbeing on a physical, mental and emotional level.

This technique was developed by Kusum Modak who combined the practice of Iyengar yoga - which aims to restructure the body by aligning the spine and working the joints - and traditional massage.
