Indian head massage
A relaxing holistic treatment that uses acupressure massage on the head, face, neck and shoulders. It aims to rebalance your body's energies.
Indian head massage has been practiced in India for thousands of years. 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.Â
This form of massage focuses on the three higher "chakras" - mind, body and spirit and as such hits your energy epicentre.
It is safe in pregnancy after the first trimester and an ideal treatment as it can be given gently and can be received while seated.
A good Indian head massage will do more than relax you. It can make you feel detached and serene, leave you sighing and wordless, but also alert and clear-headed, alleviating brain-fog and stress.
Even if you don't experience this level of relaxation, this massage treatment offers all kinds of other benefits.
It can be beneficial for relieving aches, pains and tension in your neck, back and shoulders. It improves the texture of your hair and encourages it to grow. It stimulates the flow of blood, lymph and oxygen in your upper body, and therefore may clear your sinuses. It treats headaches (including migraine), and eye strain. It treats anxiety, depression, stress, fatigue - encouraging better sleep, and improves focus.
