- Takradhara is a traditional Ayurvedic procedure useful in treating psychosomatic disorders, Autism, ADHD, Insomnia, and regulation of emotional and behavioural patterns.
Mode of action of Takradhara:
In Psychosomatic disorders, when takradhara is poured in a continuous stream over the forehead it might communicate with the deepest recesses of the brain by soothing the Marmas; Marmas are the Pranas and it may be correlated with vital energy of the body. On stimulation of Marma points, they activate the immune system of the body.
Takradhara stimulates these Marmas and improves circulation; Thereby improving their circulation which in turn improves the blood circulation of the brain. This improves the higher intellectual functions also. So an improvement in psychic symptoms is achieved.
Improvement in circulation to hypothalamus also improves the function of Autonomic Nervous System as its stimulation during stress causes many physiological disturbances.
Structures like a Pituitary gland, pineal body, subcortic structures of the mid brain are related to mental functions like anger, grief, pain, fear, memory and other higher intellectual functions.
TakraDhara acts at this level improving their functions.
