Shirodhara, an ancient Ayurvedic therapy, involves the continuous pouring of warm herbal oil or liquids onto the forehead. Derived from Sanskrit, “shiro” signifies head, while “dhara” implies flow. During the session, clients recline as therapists pour warm oil onto their foreheads, allowing it to trickle down the scalp, inducing a calming sensation. Therapists may also incorporate gentle scalp and forehead massages to augment the therapy’s benefits.
