Neerozhukkil Vaidyasala: Udvartana (Herbal Powder Massage)

Udvartana is an invigorating Ayurvedic body therapy that uses warm, medicated herbal powders applied with rhythmic, upward strokes. Unlike oil massage, Udvartana is designed to exfoliate the skin, stimulate lymphatic flow, improve circulation, and support metabolic balance. Traditionally used to reduce Kapha and Medas (fat tissue), Udvartana helps lighten the body, firm the skin, and improve tone and texture. The friction created during the therapy encourages microcirculation and supports the removal of Ama (toxins), leaving you feeling lighter, energized, and rejuvenated.

How is Udvartana different from a traditional massage?

Unlike oil massages, Udvartana uses herbal powders, which invigorates circulation, metabolism, and even detoxifies the skin. Udvartana helps tone muscles, reduce excess Kapha, and fat deposits naturally. Following an Udvartana therapy, herbal steam is usually added and a short period of passive rest is recommended to maximize the purifying effects of the Udvartana.

A typical Udvartana session lasts from 45–60 minutes, depending on both the individual’s body type and the type of blend used.

For weight management and skin benefits, we generally recommend 12-15 sessions of regular therapy to enjoy lasting benefits. The benefits of regular therapy are seen in healthier mobility and metabolism, in addition to brighter skin.

Yes, the therapy promotes lymphatic drainage which assists with the balance of fluids in your body and elimination of toxins. Along with lymphatic drainage, it stimulates circulation which increases metabolic rate and overall energy levels.
