Indian Head massage, or
Champissage (Champi is an original Indian word meaning head massage) is
based on the ancient Ayurvedic healing system. It has been practised in
India for over a thousand years, originally by women to keep their hair
thick, healthy and in beautiful condition.
The treatment is
carried out with the client fully clothed and whilst oil may be used but
it is not necessary. The therapist works from behind the client and
performs a flowing sequence of movements working over the back, neck,
arms, scalp and face, helping to relieve tension, stiffness,
headaches and eyestrain improving circulation and promoting a
feeling of well-being.
Indian
Head Massage
Expanded
Version
Indian Head Massage is a relaxing and stimulating treatment for the
shoulders, upper arms, neck, scalp and face. Based on the ancient
Ayurvedic holistic healing system, it has been practised in India for
over a thousand years where it remains an important part of modern life.
Our modern lives are stressful with little time to look after ourselves
properly. Indian Head Massage is especially effective in relieving many
of the physical, mental and emotional symptoms of stress. It works
deeply to ease the physical tension in the shoulders and neck that is
often caused by stress. Head massage also eases headaches and migraines,
improves clarity of thought, increases vitality, and lifts and calms
emotionally.
By stimulating the blood flow to the scalp, head massage encourages the
distribution of nutrients and oxygen to the
whole
body as well as improving the condition of the hair and promoting hair
growth. It also benefits lymphatic drainage thus encouraging the removal
of toxins from the body.
The Massage
Indian Head Massage is carried out fully clothed sitting on a chair. It
is suitable for all ages and is safe to receive during pregnancy.
A typical treatment combines massage techniques with gentle stretches in
order to loosen and mobilise the muscles and joints of the arms,
shoulders and neck. The scalp and face are then gently but deeply
massaged.
Oils can optionally be used to improve the condition of the hair.
A treatment lasts for forty minutes and includes a medical history, the
actual treatment, and recommendations for diet and lifestyle. All
aspects of your treatment are strictly confidential.
