Memory Loss Treatment

Memory loss treatment in Ayurveda has been known since ancient periods using this treatment. In the ages-old Ayurvedic text called Ashtanga Hridaya, this therapy is cited under Murdhani Thailam.

This well-known Migraine treatment in Ayurveda explained in Murdhani thailam of herbal oil application is a method that uses herbal oils on the head for an exact amount of time so that the unbalanced body energy of Doshas gets balanced. In the procedure of Shiro Pichu, the cotton pad is dipped in warm herbal oil and laid directly on top of the head.

According to Ayurveda, the head is a prime organ of the body(uttamangam) with many significant energy points, representing the region for all the body sense organs (indriyas). Hence Ayurvedic Herbal Oil application at a single body region of the head is believed to nourish all those sense organs.
