Garshan

The Garshan massage is ideally suited to Kapha dosha types. During this stimulating massage raw silk gloves are worn by the two practitioners in order to create friction on the surface of the skin. The friction increases blood circulation, helps to oxygenate the cells and stimulates the removal of accumulated toxins. It promotes weight loss and clears away clogging impurities that might cause problems such as cellulite.

Garshan is followed by oil massage. Garshan is typically followed by Swedana (steambox treatment) to further stimulate detoxification of the cells and pores through sweating.
