Garshan –
The Ayurvedic Dry Massage
An easy application of Maharishi Ayurveda at home is the ayurvedic Garshan massage. This dry massage is performed for three to four minutes every day with gloves made from raw silk. Maharishi Ayurveda recommends this easy method to stimulate the metabolism, for an improved blood circulation and a better complexion. The Garshan massage stimulates the connective tissue and prevents cellulite. Because it supports the reduction of medha (fatty tissue), the massage is particularly suitable if you want to lose weight.
