Massage oils - Dhanwantaram
Named for the patron deity of Ayurveda, Dhanwantaram is fragrant, earthy oil containing a perfect blend of more than 40 different medicinal plants – many of which can only be found in the Indian sub-continent. This oil prepared according to the 5000 year old ayurvedic tradition is known to rapidly penetrate into underlying skin tissues, to expel toxins and impurities, and to restore skin metabolism. The herbal components in this unique oil have excellent nourishing and anti-inflammatory features.
