Indian Head Massage
Pricing: 60 mins ($70)
Indian Head Massage has been practiced on the Indian subcontinent for thousands of years. It is part of ancient Ayurvedic Medicine. The treatment was traditionally practiced between family members to improve scalp and hair condition. Massaging oils into the hair draws fresh oxygenated and nutritious blood to the scalp, provides nourishment to hair follicles and promotes hair growth. You have oil applied to you hair and therefore will leave with very oily hair. It focuses on massaging the scalp/head, neck, and shoulders, relieving the stress and strain of daily life. It promotes better sleep, reduces muscle stiffness in the neck and shoulders, reduces anxiety and reduces tension headaches.
Indian Head Massage works with a firm and gentle rhythm to help unknot blockages and relieve the uncomfortable build-up of muscular tension. It relaxes the scalp and helps tone up the subcutaneous muscles, helping to relieve headaches and eyestrain. The massage to the face has a very soothing effect and increases lymphatic drainage and removal of toxins from the face. It can also help with sinus problems and seasonal allergies.
Three of the major Chakras (energy centres) are located in the head; the crown, the brow (3rd eye) and the throat. Head massage helps to balance and stimulate these vital energy centres, promoting a sense of well-being, relaxation, and positive energy.
