“Shiro” means Head. “Dhara” means continuous flow of liquid.
Shirodhara literally meaning “head flow”. One of the most desired Ayurvedic therapy beginning with an Ayurveda Head Neck and shoulder massage.

Find out why this is one of the most profound and popular Ayurvedic therapy offered.
How Shirodhara Works on the Brain
Shirodhara primarily influences the Central Nervous System (CNS), particularly the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and autonomic nervous system (ANS).
The forehead (Ajna chakra or Third Eye region) has a high concentration of nerve endings and is linked to the pineal gland, which regulates melatonin production—the hormone responsible for sleep.
The continuous stream of warm oil activates the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS), reducing stress hormones (cortisol and adrenaline) and promoting relaxation.
The gentle oil flow induces a meditative state similar to the effects of deep meditation and yoga, lowering brainwave activity from beta (active) to alpha (relaxed state).
