Traditional Ayurvedic Vata massage oil for warmth, comfort and skin nourishment

Maharishi Ayurveda Vata Massage Oil (Organic) is a rich, warming herbal oil designed for daily Ayurvedic self-massage, especially for normal, dry and combination skin. Based on sesame oil and traditional Vata-pacifying herbs, it helps nourish the skin, support relaxation and bring a comforting sense of warmth to the body.

With its blend of Ayurvedic plant extracts and natural lemongrass essential oil, this massage oil is ideal for morning abhyanga, evening foot massage, or whenever the skin feels dry, tight or in need of extra care.

Main benefits

• Helps balance Vata: The warming, grounding quality of sesame oil and traditional Ayurvedic herbs makes this oil especially suitable when Vata feels elevated through dryness, restlessness, coldness or tension.
• Nourishes dry skin: Sesame oil helps soften and condition the skin, leaving it feeling smoother, more supple and better cared for.
• Ideal for daily abhyanga: Used warm before a bath or shower, this oil supports the traditional Ayurvedic routine of self-massage for comfort, relaxation and daily body care.
• Soothing for hands, feet and joints: Massage around the feet, hands and joints can be particularly comforting, especially during colder seasons or when the body feels stiff or dry.
• Natural aromatic experience: Lemongrass essential oil gives the oil a fresh, uplifting fragrance while complementing the soothing qualities of the massage.
