History of Indian Head Massage
Indian Head Massage was originally developed for use on the head only; and existed in India for thousands of years as partes of family grooming designed to stimulate the head and improve hair growth and health.
Women have been massaging different oils such as coconut, sesame, olive oil and many others into the scalp in order to maintain their hair in beautiful condition.
Indian barbers develop their own techniques, a more stimulating and invigorating massage to revitalise and energised their clients, that was passed on from barber to barber for generations.
In the west, Indian Head Massage has recently become popular and today it has been westernised to include other parts of the body vulnerable to stress such as the shoulders, upper arms, arms, hands, neck and face, this way the treatment becomes more of a stress management treatment as all these areas have a strong connection to the head.
Many people find Indian Head Massage a convenient form of treatment to receive as there is no need to undress, the techniques used are quick and effective and clients with special needs (a heavily pregnant client, or a client in a wheelchair) may receive treatment with the minimum fuss.
