Shiro Basti
Ayurvedic Therapy for Head & Mind
What is Shiro Basti ?
Shiro Basti is an important Ayurvedic treatment used to nourish and strengthen the head, brain, and nervous system. The word “Shiro” means head and “Basti” means retaining medicated oil in a specific area.
During this therapy, a specially prepared cap is placed around the head and filled with warm medicated oil. The oil is retained for a specific duration so that its therapeutic properties can penetrate deeply into the scalp and nerves.
Shiro Basti is known for its powerful effects in treating neurological disorders, stress-related problems, and scalp conditions.

How Shiro Basti Therapy Works
In Shiro Basti therapy, warm medicated oil is retained on the head using a specially designed cap. The warmth and medicinal properties of the oil penetrate the scalp and nerve endings, helping improve blood circulation and calm the nervous system.
This therapy provides deep nourishment to the head region and promotes overall mental and neurological wellness.
