Shirovasti translates literally as “head inflow“. The term ‘head oil bath’ is also often used. During this treatment warm herb oil is poured into a hat that is open at the top and positioned on the head. The oil is prepared specifically for each individual. The length of time the hat is left on the head depends on the person’s constitution and symptoms. This direct contact with the scalp stimulates the head area and the nervous system.
