๐ฟ Shirodhara is a classic Ayurvedic therapy or the practice of slowly and steadily dripping medicated oil or medicated decoctions on the forehead. The therapy induces a relaxed state of awareness that results in a psychosomatic balance.
๐ฟ Intense feelings of wellness, mental lucidity, and comprehension are experienced in the Shirodhara treatment.

๐ฟ As per Ayurveda, Shirodhara is specifically advised when there is an aggravation of Vata and Pitta Doshas in the mind and body. An augmentation of Vata dosha results in insomnia, racing thoughts, anxiety, stress, dryness, hair fall, pain, and aches, whereas an aggravated Pitta dosha causes anger, irritability, frustration, burning sensation, migraines, and premature greying of the hair. Shirodhara is said to be beneficial when these Vata and Pitta imbalances create the above concerns.
๐ฟ Shirodhara relaxes the mind and helps to eliminate mental toxins (ama) by giving a purifying effect and balancing your doshas. It stimulates the vital points on your head, which help boost blood circulation. Shirodhara massage on the head allows the oil to infuse deep into the scalp, imparting a comforting sensation, which further permeates into the internal peripheral nerves of the forehead.
โณ The Shirodhara treatment is administered for about 60 to 90 minutes in a day. The duration of the treatment may vary, as it depends on many factors. The Ayurvedic practitioner determines both the duration and the number of days according to the patientโs age, constitution, dosha status, concern, and severity.
๐ฏ How Do You Perform Shirodhara? ๐ฏ
The Shirodhara treatment usually follows Abhyanga. The person lies down on the Shirodhara table with their eyes closed and covered.
A stream of warm herbal decoction/oil is poured onto the personโs forehead. Vibrations are created on the forehead by the constant stream of oil.
The oil pe*****tes deep down into the nervous system after saturating the forehead and scalp. The oils used in this procedure improve blood circulation to the brain by the vasodilation of all the channels.
The warm pressure and flow of oil help you to completely rejuvenate and relax. To maintain the rhythmic and continuous flow of oil over your entire forehead, the practitioner rotates the Dhara pot.
After finishing the Dhara, the patient is allowed to take rest for a few minutes, and then a hot water bath can be taken and the hair is cleaned out.
๐ฏ The Benefits Of Shirodhara ๐ฏ
๐ฟ Reduces Fatigue
Shirodhara reduces fatigue and initiates a soothing effect on our brain cells. It is a purifying and rejuvenating therapy designed to eliminate toxins and mental exhaustion as well as relieve stress and any ill effects on the central nervous system.
๐ฟ Beneficial In Sleep-Related Problems
The treatment has a soothing effect on the hypothalamus and helps regulate pituitary gland activity to induce sleep, thus treating conditions such as insomnia.
๐ฟ Boosts Blood Circulation
The use of warm herbal oils in Shirodhara helps in vasodilation of the blood vessels, improving blood circulation to the brain.
๐ฟ Helps Improve Headaches
In Ayurveda, due to stress or anxiety-related episodes, the Pitta dosha obstructs the flow of Vata dosha, consequently causing throbbing pain in the head. The soothing effect of these oils helps manage aggravated doshas and alleviates stress-induced headaches and migraines.
๐ฟ Lowers Stress, Anxiety, And Depression
Shirodhara can help soothe the hypothalamus, which activates the regulation of the pituitary gland. It also works in reducing elevated serotonin levels and stress hormones such as noradrenaline and adrenaline, to effectively manage stress.
๐ฟ Improves Concentration
By nourishing the scalp, Shirodhara helps improve mental clarity, and thought process, and helps to lower stress levels. It also helps prevent neurological disorders, which can cause memory loss and concentration problems.
๐ฟ Beneficial For Jetlag
It is a wonderful experience for people who suffer from jet lag or insomnia due to frequent flying as this therapy helps reset the daily routine of waking and sleeping due to continuous traveling, relaxes your exhausted body, and decreases fatigue.
