‘Shiro’ means head, and ‘Dhara’ means to flow.
Shirodhara is a therapeutic and rejuvenating Ayurvedic treatment that involves a constant flow of warm herbally-medicated oil to your forehead from a specific height, to a specific point for a specific amount of time. It helps to open up your channels, stabilise your state of mind and body and bring them into harmony. Shirodhara works to correct all imbalances at the physical, mental, and emotional level.
