What is Indian Head Massage?
Known as champissage, originated from an India alternative medicine system called ayurveda, is a traditional practice that is now immensely popular amongst Western cultures.
This treatment focuses on massaging the head, neck, shoulders, and arms, often using circular massage strokes to improve hair and scalp condition. It is understood that Indian head massage can not only reduce headaches and improve physical well-being, but it can also improve mental and emotional wellness too.
Indian Head Massage is a simple and deeply relaxing therapy that is very effective in combating the muscle tension, pressures and stress of modern living. Indian head massage requires no oils but if you prefer oils we can use it. It is usually done while seated comfortably and through light clothing.

The session concludes with soothing strokes on the forehead and around the eyes, promoting deep relaxation and tension relief.
