The treatment takes anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour to complete and you will return to your daily activities refreshed, energized and clear headed.

What are the benefits of Indian Head Massage?

Alleviates Tension Headaches

Persistent tension in your head, neck, shoulders and upper back can lead to migraines and headaches. In Indian head massage deep pressure point massage is applied to these areas to reduce tension along with gentle massage to Ayurvedic Marma (energy) points to restore the flow of energy which may have become blocked. Massage on the head and neck area is shown to improve blood circulation, ease tight muscles and significantly alleviate headaches and neck pain.

Enhances Brain Function

Stress headaches and anxiety can overload, disorganize and put pressure on our minds. Poor cognitive performance will impair memory retention and analytical abilities. Indian head message helps to slow down and calm our minds, bringing a sense of peace, calmness and clarity to our busy heads. Business professionals, busy parents and students who feel mentally tired or fatigued can use an Indian head massage as a wonderful self care method to help reduce brain fog, clear their mind and improve their ability to complete tasks more easily at work, home or school.

Eases Depression And Anxiety

As mentioned above, Indian head massage improves blood circulation which means that your brain cells will get more oxygen and nutrients as a result of the treatment. Healthy brain cells contribute to better mood and reduced anxiety. If your brain cells are properly nourished with oxygen, it will be easier to think clearly and creatively. This is similar to the feeling you get from physical exercise.

Improved Lymphatic Drainage

An efficient lymphatic system removes toxins and waste from the body tissues. Regular sessions of Indian head massage can stimulate lymphatic circulation and encourage proper drainage within the system. It also brings in more oxygen and nutrients to the cells of your body. As the treatment includes light lymphatic drainage to the face it can be very helpful in treating facial Odema or puffiness.

Better Hair Growth

Indian head massage focuses on the scalp, which nourishes your hair follicles with oxygen and nutrients. Regular sessions can also stimulate hair growth and nourish dry scalp. In India this treatment is widely known to be beneficial for men and women with progressive hair loss. Due to the nourishing and stimulating nature of the oils used as well as the increase of circulation to the area along with massage to vital energy points it can help to delay or prevent baldness.
