Course details

What is Indian Head Massage?

Indian Head Massage (IHM) is a treatment based on old Ayurvedic (science of life/wisdom) techniques involving work on the upper back, shoulders, neck, arms, hands, scalp and face. Using a variety of massage movements, Indian head massage can help to relieve stress, reduce fatigue, invigorate and stimulate a person. Indian Head Massage is also used to aid the condition and health of the hair.  Indian head massage is a non-invasive treatment in which clothing doesn't have to be removed and treatment can take place anywhere without the need of a lot of equipment. A treatment will last between 20 minutes to one hour. Indian head massage uses oils for the benefit of the hair, skin, mind and spirit of a person.

Indian head massage aims to restore balance and inner harmony to the mind, body and spirit to improve the health of an individual.

During an Indian head massage, the therapist will also work on the client's chakras.
