What Is Shirodhara?

 

Shirodhara is based on the holistic principles of Ayurvedic medicine. This time-tested method has restored health and wellbeing effectively for over 5,000 years. Thoroughly rooted in India's ancient tradition of healing, Shirodhara still has a modernly sophisticated appeal.  
 

A flowing stream of warm essential oil is poured on the forehead area enhancing blood circulation to the brain and rejuvenating the skin.  While generating serenity in the deepest recesses of the brain, this paramount procedure, synchronizes alpha brain waves making you feel absolutely relaxed and contented. Focused attention span and enhanced memory are obtained as the pineal and pituitary glands get stimulated. The formation of knowledge is produced and problem solving decision making skills are increased. Shirodhara activates the body's natural healing system, and consequently, deeply trapped toxins are released thereby helping to restore sound sleep, uplift depression, calm anxiety, release stress, and ease headaches.
