Did you know that the abdomen is a crucially important part of the body? In learning to treat this part of the body, through ayurvedic abdominal massage, we can unlock a range of health benefits. A range of imbalances can be addressed through the practice of abdominal massage making it an essential tool for any practitioner.
In Ayurveda the abdomen is considered both physically and energetically to be the centre of the body. Within our bodies the abdomen houses many of our organs. It can be a place where we feel our emotions deeply, from a whirring stomach to a feeling of butterflies. Much of our experience lives in our abdomen and we feel the effects when things are out of balance.
From a physical perspective abdominal massage can support the muscles in this area, helping to tone the abdomen and support the burning of abdominal fat. Abdominal massage also helps to release tension in this area and so can be a great relief for those who suffer with conditions such as IBS or back pain.
