Indian head massage plays an important role in its native country. The techniques used in this wonderful treatment have been passed down from generation to generation, providing relaxation and nurturing on a daily basis for a thousand years.
Although the technique I use has probably been adapted for Western use, the aim of Indian head massage is the same as it ever was; to release stress and tension which accumulates in the muscles, tissues and joints in the face, head, neck and shoulders. Because of what it can do, this massage is great for relieving headaches and sinusitus and leaving the client relaxed and serene.
The massage itself is fairly deep. This is partly due to the fact that I don't use any oil, so getting to knotted tissue can really be felt. The client remains in an upright position throughout the treatment with a towel wrapped around the torso. A typical treatment will last about 30 minutes and is seriously not recommended for those who have just been to the hairdressers! Absolutely worth a try.
