Ayurvedic Kansa Vatki Foot Massage™

What is Kansa Vatki Foot Massage™?

The Ayurvedic Kansa Vatki Foot Massage with marma therapy (Indian Acupressure) is a beautiful and relaxing health-care modality, which balances the body, mind and spirit.

The treatment involves the use of a dosha oil which is massaged into the feet and legs. The massage is deeply revitalising for tired feet and legs, and as the feet contain key energy and nerve endings relating to internal organs, the Ayurvedic Kansa Vatki therapy also helps to re-balance tri-dosha (Vata, Pitta and Kapha).

Kansa Vatki is the unique art of massaging the feet with a Three Metal Bowl consisting of Copper, Zinc and Tin. A dosha oil is applied to the soles of each foot and it is then massaged with the curved surface of the Kansa Vatki bowl. The three body energies of Vata, Pitta and Kapha are balanced while simultaneously detoxifying and eliminating excess heat from the body.

Marma massage is an ancient Indian therapy which is derived from a branch of martial arts. There are 107 marma points (Ayurvedic pressure points) all over the body and during the Kansa Vatki Foot Massage six points are worked on each foot and lower leg (12 marmas in total). The effects of marma massage include boosting innate energy and helping to balance the flow of Prana (life force energy) throughout the body.

What does Kansa Vatki Foot Massage™ Treatment Consist of?

The treatment is one hour in duration and begins with a foot spa treatment to allow your feet soften and unwind. The therapy is then followed with some relaxing foot and leg massage performed while you are lying down. Slowly and methodically the toes, feet, ankles and calves are helped to relax. The treatment continues with special moves performed with the small 3-metal Kansa Vatki bowl. This is finished with a re-balancing sequence of marma massage (Indian Acupressure).
