Your care pathway
Before, during and afterwards.
A procedure follows assessment. Preparation and follow-up are tailored to the person.
Agree on the plan
Before starting, your therapist will explain the planned oil, pressure and treatment areas. Please share relevant health concerns, medicines, allergies or skin issues, and ask about privacy. The team will arrange a physician assessment when clinically indicated.
Communicate during treatment
Your trained therapist follows the agreed plan. Please say if you feel uncomfortable, too warm or unwell, or notice skin irritation; the session can be paused or adjusted.
Return to your routine
After your session, your therapist can answer questions about next steps and arrange follow-up if needed.
Safety & suitability
What to discuss before proceeding.
- Please tell the team about wounds or active skin irritation, recent surgery or injury, pregnancy, or medicines that affect bleeding. These details help the team screen your concerns and arrange physician assessment when clinically indicated; they are a reason for individual discussion, not automatic exclusion.
- Tell your therapist promptly if you feel pain, burning, dizziness or faintness, or notice a rash. The session can be paused or adjusted. Take care when standing, as oil may make surfaces slippery.
Patient questions

At our centre, the choice of oil and treatment approach is guided by individual health needs and clinical assessment. Our focus is on personalized Ayurvedic care rather than a standard relaxation massage.
