Coconut Oil (Organic)

 Traditionally in Ayurveda, coconut oil is the massage oil of choise, particulalry in hot climate areas. It is known to have great pacifying power for the “fire” of the skin, the bhrajaka pitta dosha - Coconut oil brings soothing relief for many pitta related skin issues, dryness, rash, itch, and other issues that may be caused by extreme heat or overexposure to sunlight. Coconut oil does not act as a sunblock; however, its chemical make-up naturally soothes and cools the skin in hot climates and temperatures.   

The SVA organic coconut oil is cold-pressed, and made in the traditional method, without the addition of harsh solvents or preservatives.  Coming from the land of coconuts, Kerala, India, you can smell the fresh, raw coconut in this massage oil! It is great for cooking, too!

Precautions:

Coconut oil is somagenic and strongly cooling.  Do not use in the wintertime (even pitta body types should not use in cold weather) as it can easily clog the physical channels, and cause imbalances.

Bottle Size

4 fl. oz.

Directions

Warm the oil slightly in hot water in your sink, pour some oil into the palm of your hand and massage into the skin.  Use circular motions over the joints and swipe out and away from your core over the long bones.  Leave the oil on your skin for 20 minutes before showering.  You may leave it on for longer but you must cover your head with a cotton scarf to keep warm and stay away from cold drafts.

As with all herbs, please consult your physician before using.

Store in a cool, dark place.  Do not leave exposed to sunlight.
