One thing I’d love to know more about is the selection of medicated oils. The article mentions Ksheerabala and Mahanarayan but doesn’t go deep on when a practitioner would choose one over the other for neurological versus headache presentations.

@Rakesh for how many days consecutively can Shirovasti be done safely? the article says 7 days but some sources say up to 21.

the post-Shirovasti instructions in the srticle (avoid cold, protect head for 3 days) were not explained by my treatment center. wish I’d read this first.

@Tom chronic headache patients should always have neurological clearance before Shirovasti. the article doesn’t emphasize this adequately.
