Ayurvedic Treatment for Dark Circle!
According to Ayurveda, two types of treatments are mostly used for reducing dark circles naturally-
- Abhyanga: It is a type of massage that helps in improving the blood circulation of whole body, including the eye area. This provides the skin around the eyes with the necessary nutrients and oxygen. This massage helps drain fluids that cause puffiness under eyes and it also helps in removing waste products from the body, which contribute to dark circles.
- Shridhara: It is an ancient Ayurvedic therapy that involves pouring a continuous stream of warm herbal oil or other liquids continuously over the forehead (third-eye), which help balancing the mind and body so as to bring calmness and relaxation. It also helps in reducing stress, which might make dark circles less noticeable.
- Netra Tarpana: In this therapy a space is created around the eyes by placing a layer of dough made of flour, and this is filled with warm oil for few minutes and repeated a few times. The oil is then gently wiped away. The herbal oil contains ingredients like Triphala (Amla, Bibhitaki, and Haritaki), and Shatavari, which have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, that help reduce dark circles.
