shirodhara
What is Shirodhara?
Shirodhara is an Ayurvedic treatment to soothe and deeply relax the nervous system.
Using the Cristalmind developed in Switzerland by Dr Bertrand Martin, a steady stream of warm water is poured onto the forehead to soothe the nervous system and melt away stress. The warm water can optionally be infused with calming and balancing essential oils.
The treatment includes a zenthai shiatsu massage focussing on the head, upper back and feet leaving you blissfully relaxed, physically and mentally.
Shirodhara is especially beneficial for vata and pitta imbalances and has the following benefits:
- reduces stress and anxiety
- calms the nervous system
- can improve sleep quality
- can awaken intuition by stimulating the 3rd eye (ajna chakra)
These benefits are further enhanced by the accompanying head, upper back and foot massage.
Let your cares melt away.

“My Shirodhara treatment was very soothing and relaxing and I felt extremely centred afterwards. I had the best night’s sleep after my treatment and could tell that regular treatments would eliminate my sleep problems.” ~ Ted D’Arcy
