Conceptual Study of Kantakari Siddha Taila Shiroabhyanga in the Management of Darunaka

Abstract

Ayurveda is an ultimate science and art for an appropriate life style which helps us to achieve healthy life. But in the new era of industrialization, it is very difficult for every individual to follow proper choice of diet (Ahara) and living habits (Vihara) which help to restore equilibrium of body and mind. Scaling of skin/ Darunaka is a concerned problem among them. Management of Darunaka is very challenging in spite of all modern tools in our hand. Darunaka is also a root cause of hairfall and acne. There is a need to find safe and effective treatment for dandruff and as Ayurveda is known for its least to no side effects, hence for treating Darunaka cases, we have chosen Kantakari Siddha Taila shiroabhyanga which is described by Rasratnasamuchhaya in chapter Shiroroga. The ingredients are easily available, non-controversial and this medicine is cost-effective and easily available throughout India
