Ancient wisdom often holds solutions that exceed time, providing solutions that are both gentle and effective. Takradhara, an Ayurvedic therapy, is one of the practices that has stood still for centuries. Deeply rooted in holistic healing, this practice has gained immense attention for its benefits, especially for children on the ADHD and autism spectrum. Takradhara, originating from the Sanskrit words ‘Takra’ meaning buttermilk and ‘Dhara’ meaning stream, is a therapeutic procedure involving the steady pouring of medicated buttermilk on the forehead.

How does Takradhara work?

Takradhara works on the nerves and blood vessels on the scalp, which in turn enhances the functions of the brain and the nervous system. This procedure utilizes a combination of customized herbal liquids and buttermilk. The mixture is infused with medicinal herbs, hand-picked by the ayurvedic practitioner, known for their calming and rejuvenating properties. The process involves buttermilk, a product of fermented yoghurt because it is a rich source of nutrients and probiotics that can help in promoting overall well-being.

Takradhara has shown promise in improving the well-being of children on the autism spectrum. Let us explore the potential benefits of Takradhara for these children.
