Abhyanga is done with medicated oil warmed to body temperature, usually by two therapists working synchronously, and it is a considerably more serious piece of bodywork than the beach massage you will be offered on the sand.
A short consultation picks the oil. Afterwards there is a herbal steam and somewhere quiet to lie down, and you should not plan anything for two hours.
