Indian Head Massage


 

Indian Head Massage has been popular throughout India and has been practiced for at least a thousand years. When performing Indian Head Massage the upper body is rhythmically and firmly massaged until tensions and pressures are released. A combination of both Eastern and Western techniques are used for the stretching and mobilising of the tissues around the neck and shoulders, upper body and cranium, this enables the movement of the joints to be restored and muscle tension eliminated. This Ayurvedic treatment promotes health, well-being and gives innumerable physical benefits.
