Indian Head Massage

A relatively recent treatment in the West, this fantastic massage has been popular for centuries in India where massage is part of the upbringing of children. Parents are well aware of the benefits of massage and they provide it for their children on a daily basis at first, gradually decreasing as the child grows up.

The massage takes place with the client seated in a chair, and cam be performed with or without the use of aromatic oils. It involves a workout for the neck, shoulders and upper back, brisk massage of the scalp and tussling of the hair which helps circulation and stimulates acupressure points in the upper body and the head. Finally, the pressure points on the face are gently stimulated.

For the client on the go, the massage without oils is a great way to experience relaxation without the need to remove any clothing. For a fuller experience, the client can remove the shirt and wear a vest top to enable aromatic oils to be used on the neck, shoulders and back. Why not treat yourself or a friend to a de-stress?
