About Shirodhara

Shirodhara is a traditional Ayurvedic therapy that involves the continuous flow of warm oil over the forehead, specifically the “third eye” area. This therapy is to have a calming and rejuvenating effect on the mind and body, and is used to treat a variety of health conditions including stress, anxiety, insomnia, and headaches.

Shirodhara is typically performed as part of a comprehensive Ayurvedic treatment plan, and may be combined with other therapies such as herbal remedies, massage, and yoga to achieve optimal results.

Indulge in the Ultimate Relaxation: The Shirodhara Procedure

Here’s a three-step process you can expect during your visit:

Relaxation: Our highly trained therapist will start with a warm-up oil massage on your scalp, neck, and shoulder area to release any tension in your muscles. Then, warm oil will be poured continuously over your forehead in a steady stream for 30 minutes, allowing you to reach a state of deep relaxation.
Pouring of Oil: Our therapist will use a special container called a “dhara pot” to pour the warm oil over your forehead in a steady stream. You’ll be encouraged to breathe deeply and let go of any stress or tension during this time.
Completion: At the end of the therapy, our therapist will wipe off the oil from your forehead and offer a final head and neck massage to complete the treatment. You’ll leave Patanjali Wellness feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
