Ayurvedic Shirodhara
The Benefits of Bliss Therapy
|
Ayurveda is India's ancient natural system of medicine. In ayurveda, the mind and the body not only influence each other, but they are each other. There can be no physical health without mental health -- and vice versa. Shirodhara is a part of the ancient of Ayurveda.
"Shirodhara" is a Sanskrit word - "shiro" meaning "head" and "dhara" meaning "flow". This treatment incorporates a steady stream of warm, fragrant oil onto the "third eye" center on your forehead, followed by scalp massage, and - depending on the treatment on your choice - by Biodynamic Cranialsacral work.

Shirodhara is a simple, yet profound treatment that works specifically on balancing and stabilizing the activity of the mind. Warm, dosha specific oils and herbs are streamed over the Ajna Chakra or third eye taking you on a journey deep within.

It aims to harness the flow of energy around your body, the nerves and balance the Prana Vata, the dosha that exerts control over the brain.
