Ancient Ayurvedic Treatment: Shiro Abhyanga for Sleep (Layered Indian Head Massage) 💤 ASMR Roleplay

Dating back to at least the first century CE, Shiro Abhyanga is a treatment for insomnia, headaches, eye problems—anything above the neck, basically. In Ayurveda, the body is an inverted tree, with the head being the roots. To keep the whole tree, the whole body, healthy and free of disease, there is a special focus on head treatments. This is a layered head massage, with real hair sounds! Ayurveda, Traditional Indian medicine, is 📢 PSEUDOSCIENCE 📢 From Wikipedia: "Pseudoscience consists of statements, beliefs, or practices that claim to be both scientific and factual but are incompatible with the scientific method."

I've got two links from Hank Green that'll tell ya all about ocean fish: 'Why Does Everyone Hate the BEST FISH?'    • Why does Everyone Hate the BEST FISH?   'Whatever's Wrong with Me, it's Working.'    • Whatever's Wrong with Me, it's Working.   And the animal I was talking about that I couldn't remember was indeed the spotted whale shark!
