Indian head massage

Indian head massage is an ancient therapeutic practice that has been used in India for over 2000 years. It is usually done while seated and through light clothing.
A typical treatment, usually starts with the shoulders, working in this area as it often holds a lot of tension. The upper back may also be massaged working around the shoulder blade. Then flowing motions will move up the neck massaging and stretching. Finally, the scalp is then massaged along the acuppresure points on the head, followed by the forehead and the area around the eyes. The upper back and arms may also be massaged.
Benefits include:
- Reduction of tension throughout the body.
- Improvement in blood and lymphatic circulation.
- Improvement in joint movement.
- Promotion of healthy hair growth.
- Relief from headache, eye strain, sinusitis, jaw ache & tinnitus.
- Improvement in quality of sleep.
