Indian Head Massage

Indian head massage is an ancient art and has a long and colourful history. It is based on a traditional system of medicine known as Ayurveda (‘life’ ‘knowledge’), which has been practised in India for over three thousand years. Ayurveda is the science of life that stresses the importance of the holistic principle in balancing the body, mind and spirit. The Ayurvedic approach to life is therefore recognising your true nature and living according to your true self.

Indian head massage not only works on the scalp, as the name suggests, but also on the face, shoulders, upper back and arms. These are all areas where we tend to harbour a great deal of tension, perhaps arising from poor posture, an accumulation of emotional stress, or spending too much time in front of a computer. The various different massage techniques can help relax taut and uncomfortable muscles, ease stiffness, stimulate blood circulation and drain away excess toxins, so helping to relieve headaches, eye strain and increase joint mobility.

In the hurly-burly of everyday activities, we often deprive ourselves of the opportunity to be still and quiet and simply ‘be ourselves’. An Indian head massage can provide a switch off from any spiralling worries and hassles and centre on yourself on the ‘here and now’.

Indian head massage does not diagnose or cure, but promotes the mental and physical conditions necessary to foster positive good health and prevent ill health.

Above all, Indian head massage is an exquisitely enjoyable sensation that triggers the release in the body of the ‘feel good’ chemicals called endorphins, creating an almost euphoric sensation of contentment and happiness.
