Ayurveda Shirodhara

Ayurveda specialized Shirodhara training — Hot oil third eye

Ayurveda body massage draws on ancient Indian healing traditions to restore balance to body, mind and spirit. This specialized Shirodhara training focuses on the hot oil third-eye technique: a continuous, rhythmic stream of warmed, herb-infused oil poured gently over the forehead (the ajna chakra) to calm the nervous system, soothe the mind and promote deep relaxation. Course content includes oil selection and preparation, correct pouring methods and rhythm, head and neck massage protocols, contraindications and client assessment, aftercare, and maintaining practitioner posture and hygiene. Practical supervised sessions build skill and confidence, while theory covers Ayurvedic principles, energetic effects of Shirodhara, safety with heated oils, and adapting the treatment for different doshas and client needs. Ideal for therapists looking to add a high-value, restorative Ayurvedic facial and cranial oil therapy to their practice.
