Indian Head Massage as the name implies has been used in India for over a thousand years.  Originally the massage techniques were used to nourish the hair using coconut oil and to encourage the growth of strong and lustrous hair. Indian Head Massage was a natural part of daily life and was passed along from generation to generation.

Today in the West it has developed further and the massage also incorporates the face neck, shoulders and upper arms and as therefore has a wider therapeutic effect.

Who can benefit from an Indian Head Massage?

• Do you feel that your hair is thinning and you are losing more than normal?
• Do you work on a pc for hours at a time and feel your eyes are tired and strained?
• Do you find your mind wanders and you lack concentration?
• Have you ever suffered whip lash injury?
• Do your neck and shoulders carry excess tension? 

What to expect during the treatment

Conventional Indian Head Massage is carried out with the client sitting in a chair and the head, face, neck, shoulders and upper back and arms massaged with gentle rhythmical strokes to ease away the tension and stress thus inducing a state of relaxation.

A deeper more relaxing treatment can be given using the No Hands® Massage techniques with the client lying on a massage couch. Clients usually experience more energy straight away and a feeling of calm; often remarking how much easier their neck and shoulders feel.

This is what one solicitor in York has to say about her No Hands® Indian Head Massage:

“After only one massage my hair loss stopped and with regular weekly massage my hair thickened up considerably to the point where people were actually commenting on it.
I suspect my problem was stress and that regular massage helped me relax but not to the detriment of my workload. I now have regular massage as a preventative measure.”
