The document reviews the Ayurvedic treatments of Nasya and Shiroabhyanga using Bibhitaki Taila for managing Khalitya, a condition characterized by hair fall. Khalitya is linked to Dosha imbalances, particularly Pitta and Vata, and is exacerbated by factors like sedentary lifestyles and stress. The treatments aim to pacify Doshas, nourish hair follicles, and restore scalp health. Bibhitaki Taila is noted for its Keshya, Raktashodhaka, and Kapha-Pittahara effects, making it a rational approach for localized therapy in hair fall management. The study involved reviewing classical Ayurvedic texts and modern literature to support these findings.
