Abstract
Shiras or the head is considered as the uttamangai.e a very vital part which shelters all the sense organs and also the seat of prana or life. Ayurveda advocates various therapeutic procedures in name of maastishkya in order to protect the head and sense organs. Maastishkya is a mode of oleating/nourishing the head in order to obtain the above aims. These therapeutic modalities, if practiced regularly, improve and sustain the sense organs, facilitate smooth facial skin, improve the strength of the skull, promote hair growth and avoid the incidence of headache.
