Udvartana Massage – Ayurvedic Herbal Powder Therapy

“Udvartana treatment” refers to moving something in an upward direction. During this treatment, dry, medicated powders are rubbed and massaged onto the body using upward strokes. There are 2 types of Udvartana Ruksha – referred to “Dry Powder Massage” & Snigdha – referred to “Paste Massage with Oil“.

The upward strokes and herbal powders help break down fat, improve circulation, eliminate toxins, enhance skin texture, stimulate the lymphatic system, and ignite digestion. At Herbal Hills Wellness Center, the therapy is customized based on your body type for optimal results.

Udvartana is an Ayurvedic dry massage using herbal powders. This therapy manages weight, detoxifies, reduces body heaviness, and improves skin texture. It targets Kapha-related conditions.

What Is Udvartana Treatment?

Therapists rub herbal powders over your body in upward strokes. This boosts circulation, reduces fat and toxins, lightens the body, and supports healthy weight and skin tone.

How Udvartana Works in Ayurveda

Excess weight, slow metabolism, and heaviness result from too much Kapha dosha and toxin buildup. Udvartana boosts circulation, breaks down Kapha, and improves lymph flow. The dry massage creates friction and warmth, which helps burn fat, detoxify, and firm skin.
