Indian Head Massage
A blissful, deeply relaxing treatment massaging pressure points on the scalp to relieve tension, as well as massaging the neck, back and shoulders while remaining comfortably seated.
Indian Head Massage
Indian Head Massage is based on the ancient Ayurvedic healing system and has been practiced for thousands of years. Using firm, gentle pressure on targeted pressure points on the scalp tension is eased, circulation and energy flow is improved, and the mind and body relaxes.

What to expect?
Before the first session I will carry out a short consultation to discuss any medical history and anything that may be causing stress or concern, and to make sure that Indian Head Massage is right for you. From this information I will tailor the session and aftercare to suit your needs.
You will be seated comfortably, fully clothed and with a soft blanket to keep you warm. I use beautiful organic balms on the neck and any exposed shoulder areas to aid the massage techniques. The scalp does not need any oils or balm so this treatment does not require you to wash your hair afterwards, though your hair will get a little tousled!
The treatment is deeply relaxing and soporific, and many clients nod off during the session.
At the end of the session I may make some recommendations and I advise drinking plenty of water, refraining from alcohol and strenuous exercise for 24 hours to get the best from your treatment and let your body flush out toxins.
