Indian Head Massage has been an important part of Indian life for over four thousand years. At an Indian Head Massage the therapist will place their hands on your shoulders and a massage is given to the upper back and across the shoulders and the arms. The neck is massaged to release tension and stress, the head and face areas are also massaged using a variety of strokes and pressure point techniques. It becomes in effect a de-stressing programme for the whole body and thus eliminates toxins from tense knotted muscles, relieves stiffness and improves lymph and blood circulation.
Indian head massage also works on areas affected by mental and emotional stress and can bring immediate relief. It also improves circulation in the head and enhances your senses, improves memory and promotes clear thinking. This type of massage induces a sense of calmness, tranquillity and releases anxieties.
