Indian Head Massage can be provided in a seated or laying position. At Cheltenham Reflexology and Massage we now prefer to offer this style of massage with you laying on the therapy couch. However, if you wish to have a seated massage please let us know. 

​

Massage is provided on the upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp, face and upper arms.  Lower arms and hands can also be included if you wish, just mention this at your appointment.

​

Indian Head Massage is great for people who suffer from neck and shoulder tension and headaches.

​

There are many benefits of Indian Head Massage:

Psychological:

• Reduced feelings of stress and tension

• Increased sense of relaxation

• Decreased anxiety leading to fewer sleep problems, hence less tired and less irritable

• Increased release of endorphins, promoting calmness as all points above

 

Physical:

• Increases mobility around the shoulders and neck region

• Increases circulation of oxygenated blood to all areas being massaged. The nutrients and oxygen taken to the ‘worked areas’ reduce tension in the muscle fibres

• Increases blood flow to the scalp feeds this area, providing nutrition to the hair and stimulating hair growth

• Increases blood flow to the brain reduces fatigue and improves concentration

• Increases lymphatic activity. Lymph flow increases, taking waste material from muscle cells, thus, removing toxins from the body

• The massage reduces tension and knots that have built up, especially around the shoulders, neck and scalp

• Reduces muscle tension around the eyes and head, reducing headaches

• Improved skin health

• Decreases sinus congestion
