Shirodhara: The Stream of Tranquility in Ayurveda
Shirodhara is a deeply rejuvenating and therapeutic procedure in Ayurveda, renowned for its ability to induce profound relaxation and balance the mind and body. The term "Shiro" means head, and "Dhara" means flow, together signifying a continuous flow of warm herbal oil or other therapeutic liquids over the forehead. Shirodhara therapy is a central component of Ayurvedic wellness practices and is offered at Vaid Bharti to help individuals achieve tranquility and mental clarity. Shirodhara aims to balance the doshas, particularly Vata dosha, which is primarily located in the head and governs the nervous system. By inducing a sense of calm and relaxation, Shirodhara can effectively alleviate stress, anxiety, insomnia, and various other mental and emotional imbalances.
