ABOUT INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE...
Also known as 'Champissage', INDIAN HEAD MASSAGEis
one of the most popular complementary therapies available today.
As it does not require the use of oils, or the need to undress or
lie down, it can be received almost anywhere and is very beneficial
for stress related conditions, sinus problems, tension headaches,
eye strain etc.
This deeply relaxing therapy is based on ancient Ayurvedic healing
practices, as used in India for thousands of years.
The current form of the therapy was brought to the west in the 1970s
by Nerandra Mehta, a therapist from India who has been blind since
birth. As he grew up without sight, he developed great sensitivity
of touch in his hands, which led him to develop the present form
of Indian Head Massage.
Whilst sitting in a chair, the upper back, shoulders, arms, neck,
head and face are all massaged gently and rhythmically by the therapist,
until any stress and pressure are dissolved, leaving the recipient
feeling wonderfully relaxed and refreshed.
An Indian Head Massage can be particularly useful before an important
interview or exam, or any situation where you might need to feel
relaxed and 'clear headed' to perform at your best. This type of
massage also has other benefits such as aiding a restful night's
sleep and helping to promote hair growth.
