Indian Head Massage is part of the Hindu Health Care practice of Ayurveda, it focuses on your head, neck and shoulders. It is a deep massage, which uses a variety of pressure and techniques that tap into your seven chakras or path of energy and encourage healing and balance in your whole body.There are not big muscles that we ( the therapists ) could work on the head, neither stiff joints, we can only feel skin and bones, thus this treatment will soothe away stress and tension, leaving you relaxed and revitalised. As well as increases blood flow and releases tension, there are many nerve endings in the head that releases feel good hormones such as dopamine and serotonin, therefore the result of having your head massaged will make you feel a new you, as it is the fastest way to improve someone's state of mind.
