The use of ayurvedic treatments for hair loss approaches the condition from an angle different from modern medicine. In ayurvedic hair care, a holistic approach to encouraging healthy hair growth is taken. Since harmony of body, mind and spirit is the underlying thought behind all cures and preventive measures, the customary method in ayurvedic hair care or daily ayurvedic hair care can also be used as a hair loss remedy. There will only be slight differences if we want hair growth enhanced. The use of ayurvedic hair oil specific to boosting hair growth instead of plain coconut oil is an example.
Some professionals would argue that ayurvedic hair care has much more to offer when it comes to hair loss treatment than other forms of medicine. To begin with treatments using an ayurvedic approach, it starts with a proper diet rich in vegetables and fruits. For hair loss specifically, lettuce and spinach taken on a regular basis will enhance hair growth. Other ayurvedic ‘hair foods’ include sesame seeds, fresh yogurt, milk, buttermilk, soya beans, whole grains and nuts.
Ayurvedic oil massaged onto the scalp two to three times a week nourishes, lubricates, and strengthens the roots of the hair by improving blood circulation to the head and prevents hair from shedding in excess. Massages clear the mind and uplift the spirit, therefore providing a holistic rejuvenation of the individual. His body therefore can function optimally and can begin to produce healthy hair again.
In ayurveda hair care, one must also be concerned of one’s scalp. It must be kept cool and avoid direct exposure to sun for long periods. Lastly, before one sleeps, as an added measure to improve blood circulation to the head, brush your hair daily for several minutes before sleeping.
