May 17, 2022

What is Indian Head Massage?


Indian Head Massage is a form of ancient healing therapy that originated in India. It is performed on the head, shoulders, neck and face by targeting pressure points, stretching the deep tissue of the neck and using acupressure techniques.

At the Therapy & Fitness Centre our team of qualified massage therapists have been carrying out Indian Head Massage for over 20 years. We are committed to continually learning and developing in order to deliver bespoke and effective service to our customers. 



What are the benefits of Indian Head Massage?


1. Reduces Tension in the Neck and Upper Back 


The combination of circular movements, acupressure and deep tissue techniques used in Indian Head Massage are designed to reduce tightness in the upper back, shoulders and neck. The ease of tension leads to increased movement in the upper body and even improved productivity. 


This makes it the perfect remedial massage for those who suffer from desk posture and hunched shoulders as well as everyday stress.


2. Relieves Pain from Headaches and Migraines 


Indian Head Massage stimulates blood and oxygen flow to the head which reduces symptoms of migraines, headaches and other conditions such as sinusitis.


3. Therapeutic 


The history of Indian Head Massage establishes it as a holistic remedy that aims to improve the natural energy of mind, body and spirit. 

By physically and psychically relaxing the body, this form of massage can reduce anxiety and leave you with a clear head.


4. Encourages Good Sleep 


A regular sleeping pattern is one of the most important elements of living a healthy and happy life. The unintrusive, gentle and soothing techniques used in Indian Head Massage aim to relieve symptoms of anxiety and encourage deep sleep. 


5. Improves Scalp and Hair Condition 


Stress can have a negative impact on your scalp health causing hair loss as well as a dry and dull appearance. Indian head massage has been known to stimulate hair follicles leading to healthier hair texture and increased hair growth.
