Massage Oil for Weak & Debilitated Muscles* This vata pacifying oil can be used to nourish and strengthen the muscles. Useful for athletes, those weakened by debility due to old age or illness, and for those with an active lifestyle requiring strength, this oil brings together two Ayurvedic herbs known for their ability to support muscle mass and energy: ashwagandha and bala. The name "ashwagandha" gives reference to the strength of a horse and is known to rejuvenate both the muscular and nervous systems. "Bala" literally means "strength," inferring the herb's potential to build muscle mass and provide energy. Combined in a base of organic sesame oil, these Ayurvedic herbs are a highly rejuvenative duo. This oil can benefit the young and the elderly, groups in which muscle tone is either developing or wasting away and could use support. Ashwagandha Bala Oil can be incorporated into any therapeutic massage where muscle or fascia may be damaged, debilitated, or in need of restoration.*
