Ayurveda and Yoga suggest many health tips to keep our body healthy. By following them, we can live a long life without any disease or distress. In that way, you might have heard about oil massage and bath. That is, in this bath, you have to apply oil all over the body and massage it, and then sit in the sun for a while. After that, you have to take a bath. This has been followed by our ancestors for a long time. By doing this, they lived a healthy life without any diseases. But, it is a bit difficult to take a bath like this in today's busy lifestyle. In other words, we take a bath like this only on special occasions like Diwali.

Do you know that in such a situation, apart from oil bath, diseases can be prevented in other ways as well? That is, if you are unable to take an oil bath like this, you can get good benefits by applying oil only on three parts of your body, says a yoga teacher (Navbharat Times news).  Also, applying oil in those places will not cause you any disease. So, let's see here in which three places of the body oil should be applied and the health benefits of using coconut oil. Three places to apply coconut oil on the body: Generally, our ancestors used to apply oil to the navel before going to sleep at night. They used to do the same for children. By doing this, the body gets many benefits. Modern medicine has also proven this to be true.
