INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE
Indian Head massage was traditionally used by Indian women to groom each other, with the aim of promoting and maintaining healthy hair growth. Mothers would teach their daughters and so on. It became a popular seated therapy, offered to Indian men by barbers too.
This is a wonderful therapy that is both relaxing and invigorating. The technique offered here is a Western version which draws from the traditional one, but also incorporates other styles of massage. This creates a robust and stimulating massage. In spite of its name, Indian Head Massage is not just about messaging the head, but also involves massage of the neck, shoulders, arms and face.
