Indian Head Massage (or Champissage) has been used for many thousands of years in India, where the skills are passed down from generation to generation.

The therapy is based on the Ayurvedic healing system. It is a holistic therapy, and strives to restore harmony within the body. The original purpose of the massage was to promote healthy, shiny hair, but there are many physical and psychological benefits to Indian Head Massage.

The main focus of the treatment is on the head but it also incorporates working on the upper back, shoulders, face and neck. 

Benefits which may be received from the treatment are:

• Increased circulation
• Stimuation of the lymphatic system
• Relief from tension headaches and eye strain
• Healthier-looking hair and skin
• Relief of stress and tension
• Raised energy levels
• Improved concentraion
• Lifting of depression
• A nicrease in self-esteem
• Dispelling insomnia

There are, as with most complementary therapies, contra-indications to the treatment.  Please contact me for further information on 01835 823418 or email me.

The treatment usually takes around 45 minutes, although the first session will take around an hour for a consultation to be carried out.
