Indian head massage

altWhat Is Indian Head Massage?

The treatment involves massage of the upper back, shoulders, upper arms, neck, face and scalp with the client seated in an upright position, and is an extremely effective therapy that has developed from traditional techniques practised over thousands of years.

The massage works on significant areas of the body, especially the neck and shoulders, where stress can effect major muscle groups, and will often bring immediate relief, easing tension, and melting away knots. Improved circulation and lymphatic flow helps disperse toxins, improving flexibility and fluidity of movement.

What Is The History Of Indian Head Massage?

The therapy originates from an ancient system of medicine known as Ayurveda, developed in the Himalayan region of the Indian subcontinent around 1800 BC. The underlying philosophy is that health results from harmony, and promotes living a holistic way of life, incorporating exercise, diet, meditation and massage with aromatic oils to create harmony within all aspects of a person’s life.

Massage has been a part of daily life in India for thousands of years, and the head is considered a vital part of who we are - it is home to our identity and intelligence, the centre of our nervous system - if our head feels good, we feel good.

What Are The Benefits Of Indian Head Massage?

Head massage helps relieve stress-related problems, including headaches, eyestrain, neck and shoulder stiffness. It can also provide relief from earache, tinnitus, aching jaws from grinding or clenching teeth, sinusitis, migraine and insomnia

The treatment may also help with other conditions associated with stress such as hair loss, dandruff, psoriasis and scalp tension. By relaxing the muscles of the scalp, indian head massage improves blood flow, alleviates anxiety and relaxes the whole body.
