Product Description of Sitaram Shadbindu Thailam

Sitaram’s Shadbindu Thailam is a classical Ayurvedic nasal oil (nasya) crafted with time-tested recipes from ancient sushruta granthas, made for the delicate head and neck region. The word “Shadbindu” literally means “six drops,” a reference to the traditional dosage—yet its benefits resonate far beyond six little pearls of oil. This well-balanced formulation brings together vata-pitta-kapha harmonizing herbs in a sesame oil and goat’s milk base that feels texture-rich but never too heavy.

Use it after a gentle steam or warm compress around the neck: tilt the head back, let the oil drip in to purify the srotas (channels) above the shoulders. You might feel an opening in the sinus passages or a subtle shift in head pressure. And though it was designed to address chronic or seasonal imbalances like cough, cold, sinus congestion, even headache, many users say it also brings a little moment of calm—like pausing for a breath amidst life’s bustle.

Note: this oil is best appreciated with consistency. Daily or every-other-day use can help maintain the balanced state of the head’s sensory functions—smell, taste, hearing, and vision—all influenced by healthy nasal channels. Also, a gentle massage around the ears and base of skull can extend its soothing action beyond the nasal cavity. Some days it feels right, some days you skip— Ayurvedic routines are about finding your own rhythm, after all!
