Indian head massage
Indian
Head Massage works on both a physical and mental level. By concentrating on
the areas most vulnerable to stress and tension, it provides a de-stressing
programme for the whole body. Relieving tension in these key areas unlocks
the energy trapped in the muscles, encouraging the flow of blood and thereby
re-energising every part of the body. The results of freeing up this energy
are felt on a mental, physical and spiritual level.
Indian Head Massage has a far reaching effect on every one of the body’s systems. It supports the nervous system by alleviating stress.
By stimulating the lymphatic system, the process eliminating toxins and poisons is encouraged, and our bodies are cleansed and purified more efficiently. The circulatory and immune systems are stimulated, and the respiratory system is reinforced, as deep breathing is encouraged.
The shoulder area acts as a buffer between mind and body, and attitudes and responsibilities, fear and suppressed feelings can all be reflected in this area of the body. Muscles tighten due to emotional and physical stress and the tight muscles impede the free movement of the neck and shoulders. Indian Head Massage helps by using a variety of stimulating and tension releasing techniques. The stimulating strokes used help to increase the blood supply.
Massage of the upper arms helps to relax overused muscles, such as the biceps, triceps and deltoid. This helps to improve the mobility of the shoulder joint.
Massage of the face and scalp reduces the number of tension headaches in and in some cases eliminates them. The scalp and the hair can be massaged using oils, encouraging hair growth by increasing the blood supply to the hair follicles. Essential oils can be added to the base oil to treat specific hair conditions.
The client can remain fully clothed but for a more beneficial treatment essential oils can be used, therefore the upper back and shoulders need to be uncovered. The client sits upright in a chair with the therapist working form behind.
The whole treatment should take half an hour. A short consultation will be carried out at the initial treatment.
