What is Indian Head Massage?

Indian head massage originated from India and is a beautifully traditional practice that is now immensely popular amongst Western cultures.

This massage focuses on the parts of the body that are prone to tension and stress:

  • scalp
  • face
  • neck
  • arms
  • shoulders
  • upper back

Indian head massage combines techniques which include kneading and probing of the neck and shoulder areas. The scalp is massaged, using squeezing, tapping, rubbing or prodding motions. Facial pressure points are also messaged to relieve sinus pressure, increase alertness and stimulate circulation.

By releasing built-up tension in the head and neck area, and relieving muscle stiffness, you will feel relaxed and rejuvenated.
