1. body massage is called as Abhyanga in Ayurveda and should be done by everyone, everyday, especially old aged and tired people.
2. It improves eye sight, nourishes muscles, improves age and skin complexion.
3. In modern terms: the cell membrane is made of lipo proteins and oil [used in massage] being a form of lipids, it is easy for the oil to pass through the skin to the targeted area, as such there is/are no side effects of massage but one should keep certain things in mind:
i. It is advised to rest a minimum of two to three hours as the Doshas will be fluctuating a great deal and unable to support you during this interval
ii. avoid any strenuous or stressful activities.
iii. eat lightly and stay quiet.
