Indian Head massage is based on Ayurveda,
a system of medicine that has been in use in India for thousands of
years.
The therapy is performed on the upper back, shoulders,
arms, neck, face and scalp. It can improve circulation, encourage
the removal of toxins and relieve muscle tension and
joint stiffness. Skin and hair look and feel healthier and reduction
in stress levels can lead to improved concentration and alertness
during the day with better quality sleep at night.
The
client relaxes in a chair during the treatment. Although it is usual
to uncover the shoulders and back, the massage can be performed
through light clothing such as a shirt. A treatment usually lasts
for 30 minutes.
