The element of Air: In Sanskrit - वायु

Vayu वायु is the principle of movement. All movements are governed by the element of air

The air element impels blood flow, encourages food to move through the GI tract and carries out transmission of nerve impulse.

The air element is related to the sense of touch

The skin functions as the organ of touch this is why warm oil massages are so beneficial in balancing vayu, the wind element 

The traditional ayurvedic oil massage is called an Abhyanga treatment. 

Different to other massage techniques, this massage is done with downward strokes which helps remove fatigue and stress, promotes sleep, heals and prevents nervous system disorders, strengthens the immune system, and encourages soft, lustrous and deeply nourished skin.
