Shirodhara

Shirodhara is a restorative Ayurvedic therapy involving the continuous pouring of warm, medicated oil over the forehead, particularly on the ‘third eye’. This treatment, lasting 60-90 minutes, aims to balance the mind and body by alleviating stress, improving sleep, and enhancing cognitive functions.

It is particularly effective in pacifying elevated pitta dosha, relieving chronic stress, and promoting overall mental and physical relaxation. The process includes a gentle head massage, enhancing relaxation and promoting restful sleep. Shirodhara uses various oils like Ksheerabala thailam and Dhanwantharam thailam, depending on the desired therapeutic benefits, and is performed by certified practitioners.
