Shirodhara has a variety of purposes in therapy—for stress relief, better sleep, managing headaches, clarity of mind, and emotional balance, among other things. This is also one part of what makes up "Shirodhara Panchakarma" treatments, which aim to cleanse and rejuvenate the body.
Under normal circumstances, a Shirodhara session will last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the individual's circumstances and treatment plan.
We suggest you wear some loose clothes, eat a light meal without any grease up to three hours before arriving, and keep a glass of water ready. Lay out any health concerns with your therapist ahead of time.
Following Shirodhara, you can feel very relaxed yet simultaneously full of energy. Reduced sleep time is a common result, and better quality is often achieved while the mood gets brighter, then suddenly becomes clear-headed again. It's best not to engage in strenuous physical activities right away after treatment; rest yourself for a while instead.
