Dhoopan has its origins in the classical texts of Ayurveda, where it is considered a valuable component of holistic health practices. The word “Dhoopan” is derived from the Sanskrit root “Dhup,” meaning to fumigate or expose to fragrant smoke. This procedure holds cultural and spiritual significance in Ayurveda, embodying the belief that wellness is a harmonious balance of body, mind, and spirit. Rooted in the wisdom of Ayurveda, Dhoopan is a time-honored technique that aims to nourish and rejuvenate the scalp and hair.
