In many homes a foot rub with a kansa bowl was the last thing before bed, the metal gliding over oiled soles in slow circles. Ayurvedic massage tools like that one sit beside the oil bottle and make self-massage a little easier.

Kansa wands and bowls are made of bronze and traditionally used on the feet and calves with ghee or oil. Wooden rollers and small wands, often in neem or sheesham, help reach the back and shoulders. Wide-toothed wooden combs work oil through the hair, and smooth stone rollers are a popular choice for the face.

Choose tools with smooth, polished surfaces and no splinters or rough joints. Wipe off oil after each use, wash with mild soap and dry fully; kansa can be freshened with a little lemon and wiped dry. Use light pressure, avoid bruised or broken skin, and ask your doctor first if you are unsure whether massage suits you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is kansa?
Kansa is a traditional bronze alloy, mainly copper and tin, used in India for utensils and massage tools.
Do I need oil with these tools?
Kansa wands and rollers are usually used over a little oil or ghee so they glide; wooden combs work with or without.
How do I stop a wooden tool from cracking?
Do not soak it, dry it straight after washing, and once a month wipe a thin film of coconut or sesame oil over the wood.
Can kansa leave marks on the skin?
A greyish tint can appear on oiled skin from the metal, and it washes off with soap and water.
