Kama Ayurveda

Respecting traditional Ayurvedic techniques, the signature ​radiance facial from Kama Ayurveda visibly revives and dramatically reinvigorates the skin’s natural propensity to glow with health. ​Using a combination of original herbal blends and massage techniques, ​the treatment has three variations, dependent on your skin type. ​And there are 56 precise movements that stimulate the marma ​points to revive blood circulation and stimulate purification. ​The result is a rested, radiant glow. 

A treatment designed to deliver radiant and relaxed skin, this facial – inspired by time-honoured Ayurvedic massage techniques – stimulates blood flow and lymphatic drainage to refine and sculpt the skin. An exclusive blend of youth-boosting Vayasthapana herbs is used to awaken the skin’s luminosity, delivering a youthful glow. The face is gently sculpted using the Kansa wand, a traditional tool crafted from sacred copper and tin, for a radiant and defined complexion with puffiness and inflammation visibly reduced. And the application of Amarrupa oil with the Kansa wand stimulates the third eye to nurture a sense of calm and wellbeing, transporting the mind to a state of serenity.

A streamlined five-step regime that produces visible results, Express Glow is geared to delivering healthy, glowing skin. Inspired by traditional Ayurvedic techniques, this massage helps revive and reinvigorate the skin’s natural glow. Using a combination of original herbal blends and relaxing massage, the treatment exclusively uses products centred around Kumkumadi oil, one of the most precious preparations in Ayurveda, to help rapidly rekindle youthful radiance.

A rejuvenating full-body rebalancing massage, abhyanga – meaning ‘whole body’ – is an essential Ayurvedic ritual, often practised daily, which stimulates blood circulation and helps flush out toxins. This treatment, which is adapted to your dosha, serves to rebalance the body’s vital energy, while Ayurvedic oils help soften the skin and relax the body, relieving tension in the muscles. The result is a sense of release, relaxation and replenishing calm instilled in mind and body.

What makes this massage unusual is the small metal bowl used, in conjunction with massage oil, to manipulate the foot. This increases pressure when used alongside regular kneading, deep effleurage and specific Kansu massage techniques. The bowl itself also has unique properties – it’s made from copper, zinc, silver, tin and bronze, each metal offering a specific healing benefit. The oil combines with the metallic bowl and helps rebalance the {agni}, the life force or fire element. This massage is concentrated on foot marmas and reflexology points. Afterwards, your whole body will be imbued with a sense of release, relaxation and wellbeing.

Available exclusively at Harrods, the Body Firming Massage is designed to lift and sculpt by stimulating lymphatic drainage through a sequence of upward and circular movements inspired by Ayurvedic massage techniques. Powered by Kama Ayurveda’s Sugandhadi Oil and Sugandhadi Cream, it will leave your skin feeling firm, nourished and smooth.

Please note that part of this treatment focuses heavily on the abdomen area. It is therefore not suitable for those that are pregnant and/or experiencing pain or sensitivity of the abdomen.

Head massage is a prized Ayurvedic treatment, providing relief from stress and stimulating a high concentration of marma points. This traditional shiroabhyanga massage activates blood circulation and lymphatic drainage in the head, neck and shoulders, with a technique designed for relaxation – encompassing both mind and body – to relieve tension while helping ease headaches and insomnia. Using oils, your expert therapist works downwards from the crown of the head towards the upper back, applying Ayurvedic abhyanga techniques to aid the flow of vital energy within the head and throughout the body – an essential step on the path towards mind-body-soul balance.
