Potli massage
Potli massage is an Ayurvedic therapy that involves using heated herbal poultices, or "potlis," to massage the body. These poultices are filled with a blend of aromatic herbs, oils, and spices. The warm and fragrant potlis are pressed and kneaded onto the body, creating a therapeutic synergy of heat, herbs, and touch. This massage technique aims to alleviate pain, improve circulation, relax muscles, and promote overall well-being. The combination of heat and herbal infusion enhances the body's response to the massage, making potli massage a rejuvenating and soothing experience for both the body and mind.

About Potli massage
Potli massage, an ancient Ayurvedic practice, introduces a unique sensory journey using heated bundles of herbal goodness called "potlis." These pouches, meticulously crafted with aromatic herbs, spices, and oils, are gently pressed and rhythmically massaged onto the body. The gentle warmth and herbal infusion synergize with skilled touch to ease tension, promote circulation, and invigorate muscles. The experience transcends the tactile, as the potent blend of heat and herbs engages the body's innate healing response. In this fusion of ancient wisdom and tactile comfort, potli massage offers a holistic escape that pampers both the body and soul.
