As old strands are replaced by new, a certain percentage of hair loss is considered natural. Hair loss, on the other hand, is a sign of imbalance when it is excessive. This disorder is known as alopecia in the West and khalitya in Ayurveda.
Hair is considered a by-product of bone tissue production in Ayurveda. Hair development is controlled by the same tissues that are responsible for bone production. Because hair issues are linked to a lack of bone structure, the therapies are aimed at bolstering bone tissue.
Hair loss has a variety of causes
Hair loss is a sign of increased pitta in the body. Hair loss can be caused by excess pitta in the sebaceous gland, at the base of the hair follicle, or folliculitis (infection of the hair follicle). People with too much pitta in their bodies are more prone to lose their hair at a young age, or have hair that is prematurely thin or grey.
Hair loss can be exacerbated by a variety of factors
- Digestion problems are caused by a bad diet and meal combinations.
- Fried, sour, spicy, salty, and fermented foods are all Pitta aggravators.
- Excessive use of stimulants including tea, coffee, cigarettes, wine, and meat
- Unbalanced way of living
- Anger, worry, and anxiety in excess
- Lack of sleep, restlessness
- Immune system dysfunction
- Unbalanced hormones
- Anabolic steroids, oral contraceptive pills, progesterone, chemotherapy, thyroid hormones, and other drugs are examples.
Ayurvedic hair loss treatment
Ayurvedic hair loss treatment tries to balance pitta through a customised food and lifestyle plan, as well as herbal therapy. When it comes to hair loss, a mix of nutrition, herbs, oil massage, meditation, aromatherapy, breathing, and yoga can help.
Ayurvedic hair care suggestions
Reduce your intake of spicy, acidic, fried, and processed meals, as well as alcoholic and stimulant beverages.
Every day, drink one-third cup of aloe vera juice.
Protein, vitamin, and mineral-rich foods should be consumed. Sources include carrots, spinach, and lettuce.
Every morning, a tablespoon of sesame seed powder or oil promotes healthy hair.
Yogurt, for example, is high in probiotics, which can help prevent hair loss.
To drain toxins from your body and balance the pitta dosha, drink lots of water every day.
Ayurvedic hair loss treatments
Massage of the head
Massage your scalp with a medicinal oil like Bhringaraja oil or coconut oil on a regular basis to prevent hair loss and promote healthy hair development. Massage of the head and scalp improves blood circulation to the scalp and reduces stress, both of which contribute to better hair development.
Head massage is given in the clinic as a therapy, but it may also be taught to you at home. After assessing your body-mind constitution and specific ailment, an ayurveda professional can prescribe the best oil for you.
Sirolepa
Sirolepa is a therapeutic treatment that entails putting a herbal pack to the scalp for a specific amount of time. An ayurveda doctor will select the optimal herbal combination for your situation. Amla (Emblica officinalis), Brahmi (Bacopa Monnieri), Shikakai (Acacia Concinna), and Bhringaraja are some of the most often utilised plants (Eclipta Alba).
Shirovasthi
Shirovasthi is a specialised hair loss therapy. Warm medicinal oil is poured into a special leak-proof container (with sides but no base) and put on the head, penetrating the hair follicle. Its activity aids in the prevention of hair loss and the promotion of hair regeneration.
Panchakarma
A panchakarma cleanse is recommended by Ayurveda to cure the core cause of hair loss. The removal of pollutants and thorough cellular cleaning can substantially aid in the treatment of unhealthy hair loss.
Your prescribed deep cleanse may include traditional therapies such as Virechana (therapeutic purgation for pitta cleanse), vasti (herbal enemas), abhyanga (ayurvedic therapeutic massage), nasya (nasal medication), and shirodhara after an initial consultation with an ayurvedic doctor who will assess your constitution and health conditions.
