About this formulation

Maha Narayan Tel is a classical oil described in the Bhaishajya Ratnavali and Sharangdhara Samhita (Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa). It is prepared in sesame oil with Ashwagandha, Bala, Bilva, Dashamula herbs, Shatavari, Rasna, Devadaru and many other herbs. In Ayurveda it is traditionally used for Abhyanga (oil massage) to pacify Vata (the principle of movement), to lubricate Sandhi (the joints) and to support Mamsa (muscle) comfort. It is a widely used household oil for the stiffness that comes with age and activity. For external use only.

Classical reference: Bhaishajya Ratnavali / Sharangdhara Samhita (Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa).
