Indian Head Massage: Ayurveda
An Indian head massage will energise your mind and allow tension to slip a way. This ancient technique has been practised for over a thousand years in India, being passed down from generation to generation. It is both a therapeutic and beauty treatment with many wonderful benefits. Indian head massage can be given almost anywhere. The receiver remains fully clothed, seated in a chair or can sit cross legged on the ground. It involves using a sequence of moves such as energy balancing techniques, lymphatic drainage, acupressure points, stretching and general massage to the shoulders, neck, face and scalp. The techniques work on both the physical and ethereal body with over 60 movements.
Indian Head massage is so effective as it helps soothe and relax the nervous system while relieving joint and muscle stiffness. And of course it is very beneficial treatment for tension headaches and eyestrain. Also different strokes and pressure are used to stimulate the lymphatic and circulatory system. These are just a few of the therapeutic benefits of this technique.
Indian head massage is a beauty treatment as well. The secret of Indian women’s lustrous shining hair is the mixture of oils
and the special blend of aromatherapy oils to relax or energise the person.(Oil on hair is optional of course). It also is like a mini facial minimising fine lines and replenishing skin from within.
A short treatment of 15 minutes can be given or for more profound results treatments can take up to an hour. It is a great technique that is easy to learn for the professional therapist or lay person wanting to treat friends and relatives.
