Abstract:
Shirodhara, classified under Murdhni Taila in classical Ayurvedic texts, involves the continuous pouring of medicated liquid over the forehead for a stipulated period. It is among the most widely used non-pharmacological interventions for psychoneurological and psychosomatic disorders. Despite its growing clinical application, a unified conceptual framework integrating its classical rationale with contemporary neuroscientific evidence has not been established.
