Indian head massage is a treatment that focuses on massaging acupressure points along the head, neck, and shoulders to relieve tension in these areas and release muscles, knots and circulation blockages.
Indian head massage not only reduces headaches and improves physical well-being, but it can also boost mental and emotional wellness.
It is a deep massage, using a variety of pressure and techniques, including circular massage strokes on your scalp, deep tissue work on your shoulders, and stretching the neck.
The deliberate circular massage strokes deliver nourishment and oxygen to the hair follicle, which in turn improves the hair and scalp condition; perfect for those wanting to grow their hair.
Indian head massage is an ancient therapeutic practice that has been used in India for over 5000 years. It originates from an Indian alternative medicine system called Ayurveda, (meaning the ‘science of life’), whereby it is believed that the mind and body are intricately connected and can influence one another.
Indian Head Massage allows you to experience soothing and calming sensations that release chemicals called endorphins which create a feeling of happiness, which is a great boost to your mood and general wellbeing.
It requires no oils or equipment (oils are optional), making it a very accessible treatment and is usually done while seated and through light clothing.
