Ayurvedic Yoga Massage is a unique system of bodywork that combines deep tissue massage with coordinated breathwork and yoga stretching. The session is performed on a mat on the floor for free movement and flow. Deep tissue massage helps to remove knots and adhesions in the muscles and soft tissues, releases tension and prepares the body of the receiver for assisted yoga stretching. An  ayurvedic herb  is applied to the skin with a small amount of oil and acts a blood detoxifier and nerve tonic.

Through synchronised breathing, the receiver is led progressively deeper into assisted yoga stretches that help correct postural imbalances and restore harmony to the subtle energies of the body.
