Ksheradhara
Ksheradhara is an Ayurvedic therapy that involves the continuous pouring of warm medicated milk over the forehead (Shirodhara) or the entire body (Sarvangadhara). This treatment is known for its soothing, nourishing, and rejuvenating effects, particularly for conditions associated with Vata and Pitta dosha imbalances.
Benefits:

- Improves Sleep: Ksheradhara is effective in treating insomnia and promoting better sleep by inducing a state of deep relaxation.
- Nourishes and Hydrates Skin: The milk used in the therapy moisturizes and nourishes the skin, improving its texture and appearance.
- Relieves Headaches and Migraines: The treatment can help alleviate chronic headaches and migraines by reducing tension and providing a cooling effect.
- Balances Vata and Pitta Doshas: Ksheradhara is particularly beneficial for conditions caused by an imbalance in Vata and Pitta doshas, such as dry skin, anxiety, and inflammation.
- Promotes Mental Clarity: The therapy can help enhance concentration, memory, and overall cognitive function.
