A member asked:

Which oil is good for body masaj?

Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Massage Oil: I would advise you that there may not be a right answer to this question. Medically my thoughts would be to choose an oil that is not harsh on your skin and one that you do not react to as like allergies. I would think that most oils used for massage are safe.
