This technique is recommended for people showing signs of Ama, which can include fatigue, sluggishness, feelings of physical or mental dullness and a depleted immune system. By stimulating blood and lymphatic circulation, it can help to unblock and mobilise these toxins, contributing to a sense of revitalisation and balance in the body and mind.

 

This is a dry massage designed to stimulate the skin and lymphatic system. It is traditionally performed with raw silk or linen gloves, although many prefer to use a natural bristle glove. This may be followed by an oil massage.
