Shirodhara

The Ayurvedic Therapy for Chronic Stress, Anxiety, Insomnia, Sleep Disorders, Headaches, Migraines, and Related Conditions
Shirodhara is a traditional Ayurvedic therapy that involves the continuous pouring of warm, medicated oil or other therapeutic liquids on the forehead, specifically on the ‘third eye’ area. This therapy is known for its calming and soothing effects on the mind and body, promoting mental clarity, deep relaxation, and overall well-being. The gentle, rhythmic flow of oil helps to harmonize the doshas, particularly Vata and Pitta, and facilitates the release of built-up stress and tension.

Precautions to be taken before, during and after the therapy

After the therapy, it is recommended to keep the head warm, avoid exposure to cold environments, and rest adequately to maximize the therapy’s relaxing and rejuvenating effects.
