Abhyanga Swedam (General Body Massage Therapy with Steam Bath) is a deeply restorative Ayurvedic therapy that combines the nourishing power of warm herbal oil massage (Abhyanga) with the detoxifying benefits of therapeutic steam (Swedam). This time-honored treatment is designed to balance the doshas, eliminate toxins, improve circulation, and rejuvenate both body and mind.

At CHARAKA, Abhyanga Swedam is offered as a holistic healing experience—rooted in classical Ayurvedic wisdom and tailored to your unique constitution.
