Takradhara for Psoriasis

Most familiar with Ayurveda have experienced the iconic Shirodhara treatment. Shirodhara uses warm oil while Takradhara follows the same process but uses medicated buttermilk instead - the pouring of a liquid from a vessel onto the forehead.

Takra, which translates to Buttermilk in Sanskrit, is cooling in nature and great for conditions related to excessive heat, mental stress, sleeping disorders, headaches and hair fall. In addition to dietary adjustments, Takradhara is known to be effective in improving the health of chronic skin conditions. The buttermilk is prepared with Ayurvedic herbs suitable for you.

The treatment is one hour in duration and is usually advised after a consultation with one of our Ayurvedic Practitioners - especially during the winter months to ensure it is suitable for you.
