Ayurvedic Shirodhara

This 90-minute treatment begins with Champissage (traditional seated Indian head massage) as well as massage to the upper back and neck. Afterwards, the client is moved to the massage table for a sound meditation in order to prepare the body and mind for the shirodhara.

The Sanskrit term Shirodhara translates as Shiro ‘head’ and dhara ‘flow’. This is a deeply relaxing treatment using warm herbalized oils poured in a continuous gentle stream over the forehead and scalp. This procedure synchronizes brain waves and profoundly coordinates and calms the mind, body, and spirit. Shirodhara enhances blood circulation to the brain, improves memory, nourishes the hair and scalp and generally aids in the release of stress and tension.
