Indian Head Massage springs from a 1,000 year old tradition of intergenerational family massage. Originally developed by women as part of their grooming routine, they used different oils (coconut, sesame, mustard) to bring rich blood flow to their scalp, and to keep their hair strong and lustrous. Alternation of “friction” techniques to stimulate the scalp and “rubbing” techniques to relax it ease tensions and melt away fibrous knots in the neck, head and shoulders. The efficiency of the circulatory and lymphatic systems improves as toxins are dispersed from tense muscles. Muscles of the scalp become more deeply oxygenated. This massage is good for tension headaches, migraines, sinusitis, anxiety, and eyestrain. Indian Head Massage releases stagnant energy, improves concentration, promotes hair growth, deepens your breathing, and enhances a sense of calmness, peace and tranquility.
