    TLDR Shirodhara may help improve mental well-being, but more research is needed.
    The review investigates the potential of Shirodhara, an ancient Ayurvedic therapy, in alleviating psychological symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and insomnia that have increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through a comprehensive literature search, the findings suggest that Shirodhara may enhance mental well-being through its calming effects. However, further research, including Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), is necessary to confirm these findings and consider integrating Shirodhara into mainstream mental health treatments. The study highlights the need for a multifaceted approach to address the psychological impacts of COVID-19, with Shirodhara as a possible key component.
