Ayurveda, one of the oldest systems of medicine in the world, views the body as intimately connected with the environment and all other life forms. Ayurvedic massage is a type of hands on massage which works on both the physical and mental levels. It can relieve muscular tension, restore agility to stiff joints, and stop premature aging and wrinkling. Ayurvedic massage is based on each individual’s body type. The practitioner uses specific oils to stimulate subtle energy points throughout the body. The 11 CE hour Ayurvedic Massage course will introduce you to this valuable massage modality. Basic Ayurvedic techniques are outlined in the textbook as well as demonstrated in more than 1 hour of online video clips.
