WHAT IS NAVEL OILING / PECHOTI METHOD?
Navel Oiling is an Ayurvedic ritual dating back to the fifteenth century, where herbal oil is massaged into the belly button to support digestion, hormonal balance and overall well-being..
HOW?
Transdermal delivery of herbs and medicines is a common practice in both Western and Eastern medicine. Think nicotine patches, pain relief gels and hormone creams!
The skin around the navel is thin and rich with nerve endings and lymphatic flow. When our herbal oil is placed into the navel, it absorbs through these pathways and begins to nourish the tissues deep in the gut.

what makes amrita one navel oil different from traditionAl ghee or castor oil based methods?
Our formula brings together over forty botanicals working in harmony to nourish body, mind and spirit. It invites an experience of deep relaxation, emotional release, and holistic restoration unlike plain oil blends.

These methods allow the botanicals to integrate deeply and make the oil more potent and bioavailable.

Find a quiet, comfortable place to lie down. Most people prefer to do this in bed before sleep.
Begin with a few drops in the navel for the first week, then move to one full dropper as your body adjusts. Allow the oil to warm with your body heat before massaging in slow, deep clockwise circles until fully absorbed. The more deeper the massage, the deeper the medicine travels.
