Start Your Day the Ayurvedic Way ✨

Did you know your tongue tells the first story of your health each morning?

Tongue scraping is a simple, ancient Ayurvedic ritual that clears away toxins (ama), freshens the breath, and awakens your digestive fire for the day ahead.

Our handcrafted Ayurvedic Tongue Scraper, made exclusively for Ayurveda New Zealand by a family-run business in India, is a tool of tradition and quality. It even comes tucked in a lovely organic cotton bag.

How to Use It:
Best done on an empty stomach, right after waking.
Hold both ends and gently scrape from back to front.
Rinse and repeat 7–14 times.

You’ll notice a cleaner mouth, a clearer breath, and a deeper sense of daily renewal.

A simple practice that supports whole-body wellbeing.
