Kansa Bowl

Crafted from high-quality bronze, our Kansa Bowl is an essential tool for Pada Abhyanga treatments, an ancient Ayurvedic foot massage practice.

Designed with comfort in mind, our Kansa Bowl ensures ease of use for the therapist, facilitating a seamless and effective treatment experience. Each Kansa Bowl is meticulously crafted for optimal performance and is sold individually to meet your therapeutic needs.

How to Use the Kansa Bowl for Pada Abhyanga:

Prepare the Feet:

• Begin by washing the feet with warm water to cleanse and relax them.
• Pat the feet dry with a clean towel.

Apply Oil:

• Choose a suitable Ayurvedic oil, such as sesame or coconut oil.
• Warm the oil slightly, then apply it generously to the feet, covering both the soles and the tops.

Using the Kansa Bowl:

• Hold the Kansa Bowl comfortably in your hand.
• Begin with gentle, circular motions on the sole of the foot, starting from the heel and moving towards the toes.
• Apply light to moderate pressure as you move the bowl in slow, rhythmic circles.

Focus on Key Areas:

• Spend extra time massaging the arch of the foot, the base of the toes, and the heel. These areas often hold tension and benefit from deeper massage.
• You can also use the bowl on the top of the foot, using lighter pressure.

Duration:

• Continue the massage for 10-15 minutes on each foot, or as needed.
• Ensure the movements are smooth and consistent to encourage relaxation and circulation.

Aftercare:

• Wipe off any excess oil with a clean towel.
• Allow the recipient to rest for a few minutes after the massage to fully absorb the benefits.
• Clean the Kansa Bowl with warm, soapy water and dry it thoroughly.
