You all have spoken and I have listened. Over the years, the general consensus about most of the Ayurvedic massage oils out there has been that they are effective for dosha balancing but smell like they are medicinal. In response to those of you who, like myself, enjoy products that are both healing and pleasant to the nose, I have collaborated with Liz Minner of Healing Fields Whole Body Care to create Ayurvedic body oils that have medicinal and aromatherapeutic properties specific to each dosha. In other words, these are oils that smell wonderful and have healing actions. These oils are handcrafted locally in Baltimore from sustainably sourced ingredients. They are bottled in glass, so the containers are reusable and you don't have to worry about plastic leaching into the oil from the packaging. The Vata and Kapha oils are available as of this week.* I have tested both and can confirm their dosha-balancing properties. Pitta oil is coming soon!
