Udwarthanam + Steam Bath
Full-body herbal powder scrub paired with herbal steam bath. Stimulates metabolism, breaks down subcutaneous fat and supports weight management when paired with diet and exercise.
This treatment combines a full-body Udvarthanam, a warm dry herbal-powder scrub massaged upward against the direction of hair growth, with a herbal steam chamber (Bashpa Swedana) immediately afterwards. Together they stimulate metabolism, help break down stubborn subcutaneous fat, improve circulation and sweat out toxins.

The session, step by step
Herbal scrub
A firm, gritty body scrub removes dead skin with brisk upward strokes.
Localized heat
The brisk strokes generate localized heat in the fatty tissue.
Steam bath
A herbal steam bath follows immediately, inducing heavy sweating.
Detox sweat
The sweating helps flush toxins and reduce stiffness.
Warm shower
A warm shower afterwards leaves you feeling light and refreshed.
Avoid this treatment during pregnancy; with open wounds, eczema, psoriasis or active skin infections; with highly sensitive dry skin; with high blood pressure, heart disease or severe dizziness, as the steam raises the heart rate; or with fever, acute inflammation or severe weakness. Never undertake it on a full stomach, and wait at least two hours after a heavy meal.
