This massage table is called 'dhroni' and it is used for massage, oil bath and shirodhara, where much oil or liquid is used. one might add a mattress for just abhyangam, esp. if there is pain.
This massage is an ayurvedic treatment, one has to be careful to use the right oil for the particular person, as Abhyangam has a heating effect on the body. If you have much heat or pitta conditions, best to use coconut oil. This treatment as a self oleation can be done by oneself, using warmed sesame oil from head to toe. the oil is going into the deeper levels and is reaching after 7 days the bones. Daily self oleation creates immunity.. The oil should be kept for 30-60 min, warm bath follows
careful with aroma oils, they cannot be used for body massage. Use only authentic oils. The basic oils are 1. Sesame oil - best basic oil, 2. coconut oil - cooling and for people with sensitive skin or not-dry skin 3. Mustard oil - has heating action use only if body is very cold, do not use on head.
Aroma oil has to be used with caution as it has a burning effect, it is NOT required in Abhyangam.
