Tips for Setting up and Maintaining Ajara <strong>Shirodhara</strong> Equipment • Attach the shelving to the stand before assembling the rest of the unit. • Tighten the union joints with wrenches as you put each piece together. • If the arm of the stand is sticking in the joint, wipe it with Vaseline. • Place the slider and chain on the arm of the shirodhara stand last. • Be sure the hole in your pot is free from debris by running a pipe cleaner in the valve before the first use and between each use. Hair can get caught in the valve during the treatment as well. It is a good idea to have something rigid nearby to run through the hole in this case. • If using the shirodhara pump, insert the tubing into the hose clamp provided, then attach the tubing to the pump. Tighten the hose clamp down with a screw driver so that the tubing adheres to the pump. • Place the electric burner on the shelving, and your oil into the pitcher. Place the oil on the heater approximately 10 minutes before the shirodhara will begin. If using a pump DO NOT PLACE THE PUMP IN THE OIL YET. Turn the burner to the highest setting for about 1 minute. The turn the burner completely off. Wait 10 minutes. Your oil should be to the proper temperature for a warm shirodhara treatment. You may now place the pump in the oil. •If using the pump, wrap the tubing around the stand and insert as shown, avoiding kinks. If your tubing has kinks in it, pinch the kink and bend it the opposite direction. This will round the hose. •Make sure the valve on the shirodhara pot is off. The lever should be turned upward. To open the valve, simply place the lever pointing downward. •When you start the oil, turn the dial on the burner to between the 0 and 1. Because the burner has a self regulating thermostat the light may not stay on during the entire treatment. •When finished, close the valve on the shirodhara pot, unplug the pump, and turn the burner off. •To keep your burner, pan and shirodhara pot clean, simply place a quarter sized dollop of liquid dish soap on a lightly damp sponge. Wipe down completely before rinsing with any water. Drain the pump, then set it in a bath of alcohol for 1-2 minutes to kill germs and remove oil residues. •To bring your stand back to a shine, scrub with a dry Heavy Duty Green Scotch Brite pad.
