About this item
- SESAME OIL is the most popular oil in Ayurveda that has been used for thousands of years. Rich and robust, this unrefined oil supports numerous systems in the body, and its versatility makes it the perfect oil to support the body from head to toe—including the skin, scalp, hair, ears, lips, gums and teeth, and feet. Its uses are virtually endless!
- ITS ABILITY to easily absorb into the skin and carry its soothing properties deep into the tissues makes it the perfect oil for self-massage, or abhyanga in Sanskrit, a key practice in Ayurveda. Self-massage with Sesame Oil is a luxurious and nurturing practice that helps protect, moisturize, and nourish the body while it grounds the nervous system and relaxes the mind. It is also commonly used for oil pulling and as a face cleansing oil.
- CERTIFIED ORGANIC and unrefined, this golden oil is extracted from the seed using a chemical-free, natural expeller pressed method that retains the oil’s maximum benefits and preserves the unique scent of sesame. However you choose to use it, our Sesame Oil is a wonderful and healthy tool to providing deep self-care.
- BANYAN BOTANICALS is committed to producing the highest quality Ayurvedic products using USDA certified organic herbs that are sustainably sourced and fairly traded. All our products are 3rd party tested to ensure product quality and safety.
- THE BANYAN GUARANTEE: If for any reason you’re not satisfied with one of our products, we will gladly accept returns for a full product refund.

A Nourishing and Calming Expeller-Pressed Carrier Oil
Sesame Oil is one of the most widely and commonly used oils in Ayurveda and is often referred to as "the King of Oils." Our sesame oil is expeller pressed and unrefined and thus maintains its many nutrient-rich benefits. It is highly regarded for its ability to penetrate the skin for easy absorption, which makes it an excellent choice for massage, especially for those that tend toward dry skin.
- Sesame oil is often used for oil pulling, as a moisturizer and cleanser, and for scalp and hair health.
- Rub the soles of your feet and massage your scalp with sesame oil before bed.
- As a "warming" oil, it is particularly good for the cooler times of the year. It also serves as a base for many of our herbal oils.

Not sure why "flavor" was a rating option since it says it's not edible.
I am also using it for my abhyanga massage... it's divine. I would definitely purchase. It's a great quality oil and does the job.
