Dhanwantharam kuzhambu, named after ‘Lord Dhanwantari’, is a versatile blend of herbal medications in a nourishing basis of sesame oil. Abhyanga i.e. oil massage, is an integral aspect of Dinacharya. To pacify the deranged vata doshas and preserve balance, Ayurveda recommends massaging appropriate oils in particular body parts or the whole body. ‘Kuzhambu’ is a viscous, unguent-like medicinal oil used for external treatments.
