INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE​

​

Indian head massage is a treatment that focuses on massaging acupressure points along the head, neck, and shoulders, often using circular massage strokes to improve hair and scalp condition. It is both a relaxing and rejuvenation massage. 

​

Having an Indian Head treatment alleviates stress and tension especially in the back, neck and shoulders. The massage to the scalp helps with stimulating the hair follicles and enhances hair growth. It also assists with easing headaches/migraines and relieves insomnia. 

​

The spa style treatment will begin with a 30 minute Back, Neck & Shoulder Massage, this will begin by preparing & warming the muscles whilst lying on the couch.

I perform my Indian Head Massage on a comfortable wide massage table. I will step out of the room to give you privacy to undress and get comfortable on the table and the same after your treatment.  I will ask you to remove your top clothes but you should undress to the level you are comfortable with during your treatment. If you will be more comfortable during the session leaving your bra on, that is fine. I will work around your underwear as best as I can. ​I am a professional massage therapist who has worked with all body shapes and sizes. I am also a mum of one with a ‘real’ body of my own! and am alert to any client body confidence issues. I am non-judgmental about your body weight, amount of hair, skin conditions, scars, disabilities, medical conditions, or personal history. Your dignity and modesty will be protected at all times using towels and blankets to comfortably drape your body and protect your modesty.

​

Carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders?  This treatment focuses on the area of the body that is a problem spot for most people. The neck and shoulders are areas where we tend to hold our tension and stress. Sustained postures such as sitting at a desk or computer all day, breast feeding or excessive emotional stress can contribute to muscular tightness and joint stiffness. Leaving this untreated can result in neck pain, headache or migraine. 

​​​​

You will then be asked to lie on your back and the treatment will continue.  Acupressure will be applied to the face and scalp.  This soothes the sinuses - as well as being great for headaches. It also refreshes tired eyes. We all spend too much time staring at screens nowadays, and Indian head massage is one way to ease eye strain. Massaging around the eye and into the temples loosens the muscles around your eye sockets and can help them feel rejuvenated and refreshed.

 

To finish the treatment a relaxing scalp/hair massage will be performed.  A scalp massage can release tension, ease migraine and headache pain, reduce stress and promote relaxation.  I use Vegan/Vegetarian Weleda Rosemary Revitalising Hair Tonic. This hair tonic will enliven the scalp, assist growth and strengthen the shaft of each hair. It will also help the condition of permed, bleached or damaged hair. 

If you do not wish to have oil in your hair, please just let me know, it's not a problem.
