About the technique: The Kusum Modak Method, previously referred to as Ayurvedic Yoga Massage (AYM), Traditional Ayurvedic Massage, or simply Ayurvedic Massage, is now named in honor of its creator. This change was introduced with the establishment of the Modak Institute, founded by Kusum Modak to preserve her legacy with integrity and authenticity for future generations. This contemporary method combines traditional Ayurvedic Massage with Yoga, developed through Kusum Modak’s studies with her teachers, Limaye and B. K. S. Iyengar, in Pune, India. The therapy focuses on activating breath, circulation, and vital energy through deep touch using hands and feet, along with tractions and stretching maneuvers. Treatments are conducted on an orthopedic mat using vegetable oil and a natural powder called Vekhand, derived from a root known in the West as Calamus.
