Shirodhara is a well-known Ayurvedic therapy derived from the Sanskrit words “Shiro”, meaning head, and “Dhara”, meaning continuous flow.
During the therapy, a continuous stream of comfortably warm oil or another selected liquid is gently directed over the forehead. The rhythmic flow is traditionally used in Ayurveda as a calming and relaxing therapy.
The type of oil or liquid used can vary depending on the individual’s constitution and treatment requirements. Ayurvedic practitioners may use medicated oils, milk, buttermilk or herbal preparations for different purposes.
