Massage therapy relaxes stiff muscles, stimulates lymph drainage, and delivers therapeutic compounds of wintergreen and turpentine oils directly to inflamed joints.

The lower back (kati) is a principal seat of Vata dosha. Coldness, dryness, and overuse can accumulate Vata here, resulting in spasms, stiffness, and nerve irritation. Massaging with warm, medicated oils acts as a direct counter-agent, restoring lubrication, elasticity, and comfort.

For best results, apply the oil in long, sweeping downward motions along the lower back and circular motions over the hip joints. Leave it on for at least 15-20 minutes before taking a warm bath to allow the skin to fully absorb the nourishing herbal properties.
