Five thousand years old, Ayurvedic massage has been shown to still the mind and body by lowering metabolic rates and inspiring feelings of peace and calm. Often administered as a part of a three-, five-, or seven-day program, these treatments are an integral part of deep cleansing, rejuvenation, and life-extension Ayurvedic programs called panchakarma or kya kalpa. This book by a noted practitioner features more than 15 of these treatments, each described in step-by-step detail and some synchronized with two therapists for up to two hours in length. It provides the reader with all the tools necessary to begin Ayurvedic treatments as a part of a spa menu or massage therapy program.

Profound teachings and thorough descriptions
I had initially written a poor review, but I now see it had nothing to do with the material but only my lack of ability to comprehend at that time. The essence of Ayurvedic Massage is described so beautifully, and reawakens my reverence and gratitude to be practicing this ancient science. Dr. Douillard is a leader in the field, and has an amazing ability to “decode” Ayurvedic understanding. In gratitude and with Love ~

Licensed Massage Therapist – LOVES this book
I am a LMT in CT, have taken Ayurvedic classes (marma therapies) also read many books on Ayurveda. I just LOVE this book. This book is perfect for the LMTs out there who love learning from books. More than 3/4 of the book is Ayurvedic Massage Techniques (for one or two therapists massaging the same client). This book includes info and techniques to perform Garshana, Abhyanga, Vishesh, Udvartana, Shirodhara, Swedana, and Facials. Thank you for the wonderful writing & I can’t wait for the next volume to this series comes out – intrudicing marma, maha-marma programs & the five senses therapies..it’s definately on my list of must reads!

ayurveda review
I have not yet read through the book, but in skimming over the contents, it is quite informative and appears to be a great modality to follow swedish massage.

Informative but…
As a Certified Massage Therapist I found this book to be very educational. The only problem that I have with the book concerns many of the images found within it. There is a plethora of images BUT many of the images were so small that I had to use a magnifying glass in order to see the details better. Now, I have perfect 20/20 vision…so for me to have to resort to using a magnifying glass should tell all of you reading my review just how small the images were.I would have given this book 5 stars if it weren’t for the super small images.

Watered Down, but, Good version of Ayurvedic Massage
This is a good book for western masseuse. The clarity of writing, technique and photos are great! However, having studied ancient massage techniques from Kalaripayatthu masters in India, this is NOT traditional massage techniques taught in India.Having said that, this book is meant for westerners so tones down the tradition.Overall, good book.
