{THAILAM} OILS – THE ART OF AYURVEDIC OIL BLENDING

Ayurvedic rituals are rooted in the ancestral use of various herbal plants, combined in different ways to create unique recipes.

Out of these different Ayurvedic forms, KAMA AYURVEDA has chosen {thailam}, a potent oil blend that facilitates massage.

Using sesame seed oil as its base to ensure the best ingredients’ potency while respecting skin balance, this process ensures optimum absorption into the skin.

This oil is blended with prescribed plant extracts, obtained by watery distillation {kashayas} or the conception of a fine paste {kalkans}. Blending the oil with plant extracts creates an effective method for absorbing their benefits.

A TIMELESS SELECTION OF PLANTS

The plants are carefully combined according to Ayurvedic principles to ensure harmony between their properties and ingredients. Absorption of the active ingredients into the skin is key, along with maintaining balance to respect natural equilibrium. Most of the plants in the formula are classified under the same {gana}, categories of complementary herbs in the Ayurveda praised for their properties to bring balance to the skin, body and mind.

A TRADITIONAL CONCOCTION METHOD

For centuries, this special oil has been produced using the traditional method described in ancestral texts. Certified pickers personally gather the key herbs at the optimal time and season, which are then purified {sodhana}.

They are then either blended into a paste {kalkan} or distilled in a water base {kashayas} before being heated and combined with other ingredients like sesame seed oil. The Ayurvedic process is strictly followed at every step, preserving its ancient origins.
