Detail

Modern life leaves a mark on your tissues long before symptoms get a name. Long days on your feet or at a desk, irregular meals, stress, and poor sleep can all add up to the same picture: limbs that feel heavy by evening, ankles that puff, skin that looks dull or feels dry yet not truly toned, and a general sense that your body is carrying more than it can comfortably move. In Ayurveda, this pattern is often linked to ama (toxic buildup or waste) and imbalances in the dhatus (tissue layers), particularly the skin, fat, and circulatory tissues. 

Tissue Care Oil is a classical tridoshic medicated formula created to support these tissues. It combines sesame oil with a wide range of herbs such as Jujube, Liquorice, Desmodium, Boerhaavia diffusa and Triphala, traditionally used to help tone and detoxify the skin and deeper tissues and to support healthier circulation. 

This is a medicated therapeutic oil, not a light cosmetic body oil. It feels richer when first applied, then gradually absorbs as you massage, helping the body to warm gently, move fluid more freely and release what it no longer needs. With regular use as an Abhyanga (self-massage) or focused body oil, it’s intended to help the whole system feel less congested, more toned and more resilient. 

“Tridoshic” means suitable for all three Ayurvedic body types – Vata, Pitta and Kapha.

What This Product Does

Supports your body when tissues feel heavy, puffy, or overworked. 

Helps tone and detoxify the tissues

A blend of herbs including Jujube, Liquorice, Desmodium, and Triphala is traditionally used to support the body’s natural detox pathways and help clear ama (waste) from the tissues, leaving the body feeling lighter and more balanced. 

Supports healthy circulation and fluid movement

When circulation slows, you feel it as heavy legs, puffy ankles and a general “sluggishness” in the body. The warming sesame base, combined with circulation-supporting herbs, gently stimulates flow through the tissues, so your body feels more alive and responsive. 

Nourishes dry, stressed skin while preventing excess dryness

Tissue Care Oil is formulated to detoxify without stripping. While some ingredients help mobilise stagnation, others support moisture and softness so your skin feels more comfortable, less tight, and less prone to roughness. 

Promotes a sense of overall ease and wellbeing

By working on multiple tissue layers at once—skin, circulation and fluid balance—this oil is traditionally used to support both physical comfort and a more relaxed internal state, alongside the diet, lifestyle and treatments recommended for you.

Who It’s For

This oil is a good fit if you: 

• Feel heavy, puffy, or congested in the body, especially in your legs, ankles, or lower back after a long day. 

• Notice that your skin feels dry yet not toned, or looks tired and dull even when you moisturise. 

• Spend long hours sitting or standing, and feel it as heaviness, tightness, or mild aches in the muscles and joints.

• Have a sense that your body is “holding on” to stress, fluid, or metabolic waste in a way that rest alone doesn’t clear.

• Aren’t sure whether you’re mainly Vata, Pitta or Kapha, but want an oil that supports all three doshas at the level of the tissues. 

• Are building a home Abhyanga routine and want a general “tissue support” oil you can use across seasons and alongside other Ayurvedic practices.

Ayurvedic Insight

Ayurveda views the body through seven dhatus – tissue layers that include plasma, blood, muscle, fat, bone, marrow/nerve, and reproductive tissue. Each layer relies on strong digestion, clear channels, and balanced doshas for nourishment. When ama (waste) accumulates or circulation slows, these tissues can lose tone and vitality. 

This can show up as dryness on the surface, puffiness or heaviness underneath, mild stiffness in the limbs, and a sense of being physically “slowed down”. Because this pattern often involves all three doshas in different ways—Vata (dryness, roughness), Pitta (pockets of heat or inflammation), and Kapha (heaviness, fluid retention)—Ayurvedic doctors often use tridoshic formulations that support the tissue layer more broadly rather than focusing on a single dosha. 

Tissue Care Oil is crafted with that approach in mind. Its blend of sesame oil with herbs such as Jujube, Boerhaavia diffusa, Desmodium, Liquorice, barley, and Triphala is traditionally used to help the body mobilise waste, support circulation, and maintain healthier tone and moisture in the tissues.

How To Use

Use as a regular full-body or targeted tissue massage oil. 

1. Warm the oil

Stand the bottle in a cup or bowl of hot water for a few minutes until the oil is pleasantly warm. Warmth helps it spread easily and supports circulation. 

2. Apply with steady, upward strokes

Pour a small amount into your palm and massage over the body, starting at the feet and working upwards. Use long strokes along the legs and arms and circular strokes over joints, hips, buttocks, and any areas that feel heavy, puffy, or tight. 

3. Focus on congested or overworked areas

Spend extra time on thighs, calves, feet, lower back, and other regions where you feel fluid retention or lingering soreness. 

4. Let it sit

Aim to leave the oil on for at least 15–20 minutes or more before rinsing. This gives the herbs time to absorb into the tissues and support circulation and detoxification. . 

How often? 

Use 2–5 times per week as part of your regular self-care, and more often during periods of higher physical demand, travel, or when you feel particularly heavy, puffy, or run down. 

Note

For external use only. Contains medicated oil, not essential or aromatic oils. Avoid contact with eyes and broken or irritated skin; discontinue use if irritation occurs.

Key Functional Ingredients

Jujube - Zizyphus jujuba

Traditionally valued for helping to relieve dry, itchy or depleted skin while gently nourishing the tissues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Ayurveda is the ancient healthcare system of India. It is a Sanskrit word - Ayur means 'life' or 'daily living' and Veda means 'science'. Ayurveda then is the name given to the scientific study of life, based on the eternal principle that everyone should live in a healthy & balanced state.

The central principle of Ayurveda is that each human being has the right to live a healthy & fulfilled life (dharma), however, because of our unique body constitution, genetic inheritance and unhealthy diet & lifestyle choices, we are predisposed to certain diseases and health concerns.

Modern medicine treats symptomatically rather than looking to the root cause of the problem. This stems from the view that all people are more or less the same. Ayurveda’s special contribution is healing the cause of the symptoms by considering the uniqueness of each patient and by helping each body to heal itself. 

Ayurveda has perfected healing treatments and herbal preparations to keep the physical, mental and emotional health of a person in its prime throughout life. It is contrary to the current practice of waiting until symptoms appear before getting medical help or only seeking treatment when a disease manifests.

No. In fact, there are some Ayurvedic preparations that use animal products to treat specific ailments. However, Ayurveda recognises that meat is very heavy and the stomach struggles to digest it properly. Without the addition of particular kitchen herbs to aid digestion, this undigested food can become toxic, leading to many health problems.

Also, because meat is heavy it is considered Tamasic, the qualities of which can dull the mind, making it sluggish & heavy. Ayurveda believes that a heavy & dull mind is unable to make good choices for us, which again can be the cause of many ailments.

No. While it is true that many Ayurvedic recipes use Indian ingredients, you are not required to only eat Indian food. Ayurveda gives you the understanding of the role digestion and nutrition play in creating a healthy life and how food can be used as a medicine to treat illness. This awareness can be applied to all foods. However, it is true that Ayurveda considers many of the heavily processed foods in our Western diet to be detrimental to our digestion and good health.

• Traditional Ayurvedic products target the root cause of all illness rather than treating the symptoms of disease.

• Authentic Ayurvedic products will only be a combination of pure herbs & minerals and will never contain synthetic vitamins and other substances.

• Traditional Ayurvedic products while helping to dislodge toxins from deep tissue will also assist in the rejuvenation of that tissue.

• Ayurvedic products will help to revive the intelligence to that particular system/organ or tissue that has been affected by the build up of toxins. Once all the toxins have been eliminated one doesn’t need to keep taking these products.

Ayurveda has a simple treatment plan:

• Stop the further accumulation of toxins in the body by improving digestion. Food is then “cooked” properly, preventing the build up of toxins.
• Remove accumulated toxins from the body through herbal preparations and specific Ayurvedic treatments like massage.
• Nourish the depleted tissues through diet, herbal preparations & lifestyle changes.

• Ayurveda is based on the subjective understanding of the body.

• Ayurveda aims to improve the wellbeing of everybody and does not belong to a particular country or religion.

• Treatment is based on the individual as a whole.

• It is a much more systematic & holistic approach to achieve perfect balance between mind, body & soul.

• Whatever is present in the universe, Ayurveda recognises as also being present in the human body.

• The Universe according to Ayurveda is composed of the five great elements - Ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth (Known as Panchmahabhuta).

• These elements are responsible for all the living and nonliving substances in this universe.

• The human body is also composed of the five great elements

• Man is said to be the microcosm of this macrocosm

• These elements are recognised in the form of three Doshas or biological humours - Vata, Pitta and Kapha.

• The three Doshas are the intelligences behind each and every function that occurs in the body:


Air & Ether = Vata


Fire & Water = Pitta


Earth & Water = Kapha



• The Doshas govern the psycho-biological and physio-pathological changes in the body.

• Vata, Pitta and Kapha can be found in every body cell, tissue and organ.

• The level of each Dosha varies from person to person which ultimately determines an individual’s body type (Prakriti).

• It is the most eco-friendly system of medicine as it only uses materials that are natural and compatible to the body.

• Each individual has a unique bodily intelligence that has the power to keep the body in perfect health as long as this intelligence stays in balance.

• Ayurveda gives us a detailed & logical explanation of way the body, mind & soul interact.

Some people feel clearer and more confident immediately because they finally understand what’s going on. Results vary based on the chronicity and depth of the imbalance. You can often feel a shift in energy, digestion, and sleep within the first 2–4 weeks of consistently applying the recommendations. Deeper, long-term conditions may require a commitment of several months.

No. Ayurveda is a root-cause approach. Results depend on consistency, and the most meaningful changes come from steady daily practice.
