About this formulation

Mahamash Tel is a classical oil from the Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa). It is prepared in sesame oil and milk with Masha (black gram), Dashamula (ten roots), Ashwagandha, Bala, Rasna, Shatavari, Vidari and many other herbs. In Ayurveda it is traditionally used for Abhyanga (oil massage) to nourish Mamsa Dhatu (muscle tissue) and Majja Dhatu (nerve tissue) and to pacify Vata (the principle of movement). It is understood to be Brimhana (nourishing) and Balya (strength-promoting). Nasya (nasal) use should only be under a qualified Ayurvedic physician.

Classical reference: Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa Prakarana).
