Before the treatment, hair is trimmed and a gentle oil massage is given to prepare the head. A protective band is placed around the forehead to prevent the paste from dripping into the eyes. The herbal paste is then applied evenly over the scalp and covered with a warm banana or lotus leaf. Medicated oil is poured into a small hole in the leaf and refilled as needed to keep the paste moist. The treatment lasts about 90 minutes, deeply soothing the mind, reducing stress, and helping balance the nervous system for overall relaxation and well-being.
