Shirodhara
Shirodhara is an ancient Ayurvedic therapy given by gently pouring a steady stream of warm, herbalized oil over the forehead and scalp. This treatment synchronizes brain waves and profoundly coordinates and calms the mind, body, and spirit. It is a specific treatment for anxiety, depression, insomnia, fatigue, hormonal imbalance, headache, poor memory/focus, and any condition involving stress. Shirodhara is deeply relaxing and rejuvenating.
