Shiropichu is an Ayurvedic therapeutic practice that involves the application of medicated oils on the scalp or head for a specified duration. The word "Shiropichu" is derived from the Sanskrit words "Shiro" (meaning head) and "Pichu" (meaning to apply or place). In this therapy, a piece of cloth or cotton is soaked in warm, medicated oil and placed on the head to nourish and rejuvenate the scalp, hair, and nervous system. This therapy is widely practiced in Ayurveda to promote overall mental and physical health.

Shiropichu is often used as part of Ayurvedic treatments for stress relief, hair care, and mental wellness. It is believed to have a profound impact on the nervous system, mind, and body, creating a sense of calm and relaxation.
