Cooling Ayurvedic massage oil for Pitta balance
Maharishi Ayurveda Pitta Massage Oil (Organic) is a traditional Ayurvedic body oil designed for normal to sensitive skin, especially when the skin feels warm, delicate or easily irritated. It combines high-quality sesame oil with cooling and aromatic herbal extracts traditionally used to help balance Pitta dosha.
Used warm before bathing or showering, this soothing massage oil helps nourish the skin, support relaxation and encourage a calming daily self-massage routine.
