Kati Abhyanga is a traditional Ayurvedic therapy focused on the back area, especially the lumbar spine, where tension, fatigue, and stress most commonly accumulate. A gentle yet effective massage using warm herbal oils brings deep muscle relaxation, calms the nervous system, and provides a sense of relief throughout the entire back.
In Ayurveda, the lumbar region (kati) is considered an important center of stability and vitality. Regular care of this area supports overall body balance, proper energy flow, and a feeling of lightness.
Course of the Therapy
During the treatment, the therapist focuses on the lumbar spine, sacral area, and back, and may also work on related muscle groups. The oils used are selected individually according to the client’s needs and the current imbalance of the doshas. The massage is performed with slow, flowing strokes that allow for deep relaxation and tissue regeneration.
ℹ️ During this therapy, natural oils are used which may leave a light oily film on the skin. After the treatment, guests have the option to use a private shower to comfortably rinse the oil off.
