Developed following the traditional Ayurvedic method of incorporating the whole herb in order to obtain the fat-soluble properties of the plant and retain as many of its benefits as possible. Each LAMAV Body Oil has been made with LAMAV's proprietary Ayurvedic Wellness Blend. The oil is infused over a period of about 14 days to ensure its beneficial properties and healing energy remains, before being blended with a carrier oil that has been selected for its ability to absorb and retain all the body and beauty-boosting benefits of each ingredient.

LAMAV Ayurvedic Body Oil in Nourish includes LAMAV's Ayurvedic Wellness Blend of Ashwagandha, Amla and Holy Basil work synergistically to fight external stressors, inflammation and firm the skin. Camellia & Jojoba Seed Oils are nourishing and work with the skin’s natural production of sebum, locking in moisture without clogging pores and restoring the skin’s natural lipid barrier to protect against collagen degradation and the visible signs of ageing. Sandalwood is rich in antioxidants, sandalwood is deeply hydrating and skin-soothing, whilst its subtle woody scent is grounding, making it ideal for meditation. Helping to promote mental clarity and focus, it also supports mood balance by assisting with the regulation of our emotions. Marjoram is intrinsically calming, this herbaceous and woody oil positively influences the nervous system—soothing body and mind. Cedarwood is known for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, cedarwood nourishes the skin and is deeply calming, helping to promote improved sleep and reducing stress.

HOW TO USE -

To use as a moisturising treatment:

• Begin by warming a small amount of oil between the palms of your hands and apply to slightly damp skin. Massage into your skin using firm strokes until fully absorbed.

As an Abhyanga massage treatment:

• For optimal results, incorporate Abhyanga massage into your daily routine—using firm but gentle strokes. The practice should always feel nourishing, rather than painful.

While Abhyanga is intended as a daily practice, practitioners agree that massage should be avoided if you’re feeling unwell or have a fever, and when menstruating. As with Garshana dry body brushing, also avoid any areas of irritated, inflamed or sensitive skin.Before showering, warm your preferred LAMAV Ayurvedic Body Oil by placing it in hot water until it reaches your desired temperature.

1. Begin your massage at the crown of the head, using your fingers to rub gently in a clockwise motion.
2. Then, focus on your extremeties—the hands and feet—using an open, flat palm and firm strokes.
3. To massage the arms and legs, use firm upwards and downwards strokes, switching to circular motions for your joints.
4. To massage the belly, use circular clockwise motions to assist with the natural flow of digestion.
5. Follow with your chest, using upward strokes from underneath the breasts up towards your collarbone and neck.
6. Reach your lower back as best you can, using your fingertips to massage downwards, promoting increased energy.
7. Take your time, massaging the whole body for up to 20 minutes—and if possible, allow the oils to penetrate for several minutes before enjoying a warm shower.
