Despite the name, Indian Head Massage works not only on the head, but has been adapted in the west to work also on the neck, shoulders, arms and upper back. This makes it perfect for those who may be working at a desk/computer screen for a large part of the day.
The benefits of Indian Head Massage include:
• Relief of headaches, eye strain and migraine
• Relief of muscle tension and pain in head, neck, back, shoulders and arms
• A feeling of calm and relaxation
• Improved concentration and vitality
• Improved sleep patterns
• Improved ability to manage stress
• Increase in the body's ability to heal and fight infection
The treatment is carried out with the client fully clothed, in a seated position, and can lasts 30 minutes.
Practised originally with oils intended to condition the hair and scalp, IHM can still be performed this way, but is usually done without oils.
