Traditional Indian Head Massage
Traditional Indian Head Massages, are also known as Champissage or Shiroabhyanga, and are an ancient part of Hindu culture. They have been used for over 4000 years in Ayurvedic medicine to help bring healing to the mind and body. In recent years, this holistic technique has become popular across the world. Traditional Indian Head Massage focuses on areas most prone to stress and tension, such as the scalp, face, neck, arms, shoulders and upper back. I treat these areas using a series of strokes and pressure points to help relieve tension and boost circulation.
Who can benefit?
Almost anyone can enjoy the health benefits that come from a Traditional Indian Head Massage. They are known to restore joint motion, increase mental clarity and generally improve health overall. I carry out this treatment with the client on a chair (the traditional Indian way), so they are perfect for those who are less mobile, such as the elderly or the disabled. They can be used to treat any number of ailments, such as headaches and migraines. Are you feeling tense or having headaches often? Do you suffer from jaw aches, eye strain, lack of sleep, or feelings of stress and anxiety? If you have any of these ailments, then a Traditional Indian Head Massage may bring the best relief. Traditional Indian Head Massage help relieve tension in the upper body, head, neck and shoulders. They also offer a wide range of mental and physical benefits for your body.
