Shirodhara
Treatment
What is
Shirodhara Treatment?
The client lies on a
specially designed table. A wide mouthed earthen vessel with a small
hole at the bottom is hung above the head of the client, so that the
wick hanging from the vessel is about two inches above the forehead.
The special medicinal oil, milk, or buttermilk, etc, that is poured
into the vessel is made to flow in a continuous stream through the wick
on to the upper part of the forehead. The eyes are protected with
cotton pads to prevent oil from dripping into them. The oil or other
medium used, is collected, re-circulated and the process continues for
60 to 90 minutes depending on the Dosha. On completion of the flow of
oil, the client is allowed to rest for a few minutes before taking a
hot shower.
