Relaxing & Warming (Vata balancing) Oil

This traditional Ayurvedic massage oil is carefully formulated to balance Vata dosha by deeply nourishing the nervous system, reducing pain, and enhancing relaxation. Infused into a base of warming sesame and soothing sunflower oil, this blend supports overall vitality while calming the body and mind.

Known in Ayurveda for calming excess Vata, this oil is traditionally used to ease nervous tension, joint pain, neuralgia, insomnia, and sciatica. Its warming nature improves circulation, reduces stiffness, and soothes dry or weak tissues.

According to traditional Ayurvedic texts, regular use supports energy, sleep, and joint vitality, and is beneficial in postnatal care or for rebuilding after exhaustion or chronic illness.

Key Actions:

• Calms the nervous system and promotes restful sleep
• Reduces joint, nerve, and muscle pain
• Nourishes and strengthens weak tissues
• Traditionally used for arthritis, sciatica, and neuralgia
• Improves circulation and relieves Vata-type dryness and tension

This oil is made using a traditional Ayurvedic method of slowly infusing Vata-pacifying herbs into warming sesame and sunflower oils. This allows the herbs to release their medicinal qualities for optimal absorption through the skin.

• Ashwagandha – Calms the nerves, relieves pain, and restores vitality
