Thalam Ayurveda Treatment is an ayurvedic therapy in which the individual's head will be covered with herbal paste, and medicated ayurvedic oil will be poured in steady flow onto the forehead. Thalam Ayurveda Treatment is similar to the thalapothichil treatment but rather than covering the entire head with herbal paste, a small amount of oil is pooled onto a specific point on top of the head to cool and calm the physiology, reduce burning feelings on the skin, enhance vision, and pacify pitta that could be causing head pain.
In Thalam Ayurveda Treatment, the medicared paste is allowed to remain on the head for about 20 minutes and it helps in soothening the ear, nose and throat passages as well as combats mental tension and headaches.
