Here are some Abhyanga Instructions. Please note that this is how I love to practice Abhyanga. You may wish to do it another way, but it is important to follow the recommended direction of the strokes which are included below.
 
Note: The practice of Abhyanga recommends spending extra time on your scalp, ears, genitals, hands & feet!
 
Warm the oil by immersing the bottle in hot water (not boiling) for a minute or so
Sit in the bathroom (preferable on some comfortable towels). You may wish to run the water so that the bathroom is warm or heat it up with a heater beforehand.
Apply a tiny bit of oil to the very center of your scalp and work slowly out from there in circular motions,
Face: Massage in circular motion and upward mothion along your entire face except for your eyes. Then  massage your ears,
Massage your neck & shoulders
Use long strokes on your arms and legs and circular strokes on your knees and elbows. Always massage in the direction of your heart
Gently massage the abdomen and chest in broad, clockwise, circular motions. 
Massage your back, your bum and your genitals using the same circular motions,
Then finally spend some time massaging your feet.
Before your shower or bath, let the oil soak in for 5-15 minutes 
Enjoy a warm bath or shower.  The oils actually naturally clean the pours from dirt and impurities. You may use a loofah if you like or an organic  mild biodegradeable soap,
After your bath blot dry gently with a towel
 
This practice is meant to be done daily to benefit the body, heart, mind and spirit, for longevity, youthful skin & hair & so much more! The practice of self love can literally transform your life in miraculous ways...
