                      Indian Head Massage

 

This is a treatment done sitting in a chair completely clothed.  It is extremely relaxing and can have an effect on the whole body.

Indian Head Massage is a deeply relaxing treatment for tired, achy muscles, while calming the mind and bringing the body into harmony.  Its' ultimate goal is to release tension in the scalp, neck and shoulders, along with relaxation and rejuvenation.  Indian Head Massage is based on the ancient healing system of medicine known as Ayurveda.  This culture, which translates as "knowledge of life", believes that a healthy body can be achieved if we have a balance in our body, mind and spirit.  It's belief is not only to ward off stress but also to stimulate the body to heal itself.

Indian Head Massage not only works on the scalp but also on the shoulders, back, face, neck and arms.  It focuses on the upper part of the body that is massaged only briefly in a full body treatment. 

Through the application of gentle and firm strokes, muscles are relaxed, Marma points are stimulated, and the build-up of tension is relieved. 

The benefits are many:

  • Stimulates and improves circulation
  • Helps to relieve headaches, eye strain and nasal congestion
  • Alleviating muscle tension
  • Enhancing relaxation and calming the spirit
