It is an endless cycle with the Dubai hot weather: oily flakes one week, dry scalp the next week. Market shampoos, nevertheless, can scrub it away for the time being, and yet they contain chemicals that dry out the natural oil and can in fact irritate the scalp. Ayurveda, on the other hand, works differently for dandruff, not on the culprit but on the cause.
At Mantra Ayurveda, you can get Ayurvedic treatment for dandruff using tried and tested herbs, essential oils, and detox therapy. We don't merely want to get rid of flakes but achieve balance in your scalp and health.
"I used every dandruff shampoo on the planet, but nothing prevented flakes from coming back until I visited Mantra Ayurveda. My scalp relaxed out and appeared healthier in a matter of weeks."
– Fatima R., Dubai resident
Ayurveda refers to dandruff as "Darunaka," which is a Vata and Kapha dosha disorder resulting in a scalp disorder.
Dryness and shedding result from Vata imbalance.
Oiliness, itchiness, and fungal infections result from Kapha imbalance.
Usually, the cause is poor diet, stress, or chemical shampoo and neglectful scalp maintenance. Ayurveda takes into account the following for the treatment of dandruff:
Washing of the scalp
Nourishment of hair roots
Balancing the doshas
Follicle strengthening
While surface treatments do not leave any other impact apart from hiding the symptoms, Ayurvedic treatments work to remove the toxins (Ama) and heal from within.
Some of the most potent Ayurvedic medicines and herbs listed in Mantra Ayurveda for natural and effective dandruff management are discussed below:
Triphala, which is a mixture of Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry), Haritaki, and Bibhitaki, is a natural cleanser. It purifies the blood, is anti-inflammatory, and eliminates bacterial and fungal impurities from the scalp.
