Abhyanga Oil Massage Benefits in Winter: Ayurvedic Therapy at Patanjali Wellness Indirapuram

Winter brings a calm and cosy feeling, but the drop in temperature often leads to dryness, lack of energy and many people feel discomfort in this season. Cold winds make the skin rough, reduce flexibility in the joints and slow down overall activity levels. Many individuals across Indirapuram, Vaishali, Vasundhara, Kaushambi, Noida and Delhi NCR notice these changes as soon as the season starts. Ayurveda explains that this happens due to an increase in Vata during winter, which affects the body’s moisture and strength. At Patanjali Wellness Centre Indirapuram, Abhyanga Massage is recommended as a simple and effective way to manage these seasonal issues. Warm herbal oils help improve circulation, nourish the skin and support better relaxation. This makes Abhyanga massage an ideal warm oil massage for winter, helping maintain comfort, balance and overall wellbeing
