About This Treatment

Shirodhara is one of Ayurveda's most distinctive therapies, and one of its most calming.

A continuous stream of warm herbal oil is poured slowly across the forehead in a steady, rhythmic motion. There is very little for the mind to hold on to, which is exactly the point.

Guests often describe losing track of time entirely, and some fall asleep partway through.

It is a favorite for anyone dealing with a busy mind, disrupted sleep, or the accumulated mental noise of everyday life.

Highlights

  • Lying comfortably while warm oil is poured over the forehead in a continuous stream
  • A deeply still, almost meditative experience
  • Hair will be oiled; a wash afterward is recommended
