Shirovasti
The Shirovasti is quite an impressive Ayurvedic method specifically targeting the head and neck area and, therefore, being both the source of healing and mental calmness. The treatment name is a combination of two Sanskrit words, ‘shiro’ meaning head, and ‘vasti’ meaning container or retaining. The process thus implies the creation of a medicated oil reservoir that brings about the healing and rejuvenation.
The first step of the treatment is the making of a natural, suitably sized hat-like device, which is then firmly fitted on the patient’s head. Hot, medicated oil is then dribbled into the hat, and thus, the oil makes contact with the scalp as well as the hair for a period fixed in advance. Furthermore, the selection of oils depends on the doshic constitution of the person and his or her health condition.
The Shirovasti treatment is an effective method for the prevention of hair loss since it feeds the hair roots, helps the growth of strong hair, and is also good for the treatment of itching, dandruff, or inflamed hair. Additionally, it gives great support to the nervous system as it calms the brain, lessens stress, anxiety, and cognitive tiredness. As a result, the list of diseases that can be cured through insomnia treatment includes insomnia, headaches, migraines, and other anxiety disorders.
Besides these, the shirovasti therapy turns out to be a very good source of relief for the head, face, and neck problems. Those benefits consist of the relief from sinus infections and hay fever, facial palsy, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, and certain neurological diseases. It also has properties capable of alleviating inflammation, improving blood flow, and bringing harmony to the afflicted areas.
The length of the procedure depends on the person’s needs. Soft rubbing of the neck, shoulders, and temples may even be performed to elevate the effect of the medicine. After the treatment, it is advised to let the oil stay on the hair for the best absorption of it, and later have a warm bath or a shower to cleanse and nourish the hair.
