MODE OF ACTION OF THALAPOTHICHIL
The scalp is formed by five layers that is skin, connective tissue, aponeurosis, loose areolar layer and pericardium the dense subcutaneous connective tissue has the richest cutaneous blood supply in the body.
The cell membrane which are made up of phospholipids, absorbs the lipid soluble medicinal extracts and enter in to the blood circulation.
Since there is a procedure of Abhyanga before Thalapothichil where the medicated oil applied over the scalp and mild massage is done due to which the heat is generated and vasodilatation happens which allows the lipids in medicated oil to absorb the active ingredients of the medicated paste which is covered over the scalp containing various pharmacological action like antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, anti-depressants, intellectual properties.
These medicinal extract will cross the cell membrane and enter into the circulation. Here the covering of herbal leaf plays a vital role in completing the procedure in order to maintain adequate temperature throughout the procedure.
