Abstract

Abhyanga, one among the Dinacharyas (daily regimen) is an ancient practice for maintaining a healthy
life. Ayurveda considers it as method for healing, wellness and also in the management of many
diseases. It is an important regime that is needed to be followed in this era. The uncontrolled and
irregular lifestyle has led to the development of immense stress and strain that has affected man both
physically and mentally. Abhyanga can slow down the degeneration, improve the circulation and pacify
the vitiated vata and other doshas there by rejuvenating and revitalizing the human body providing a
proper health to the body and mind. An effort to explore the effects of Abhyanga as per our literature
has been made here.Abhyanga, one among the Dinacharyas (daily regimen) is an ancient practice for maintaining a healthy
