This type of massage can be provided anywhere as the recipient remains fully clothed and will be in a sitting position on either a chair or crossed legged on the floor.

The massage strokes are focused on the head, scalp, neck, shoulders, upper back and face. Using firm circular and rhythmic strokes the Marma points (or acupressure points) in the upper body are the focus of this treatment.

The treatment also includes stretching moves to the upper body intended to provide overall relaxation and balance for the recipient.

The Indian Head Massage is an excellent form of relief from eye strain, head-aches and other upper body tensions.

It is important to increase your fluid intake on the day of the massage and for a few days afterwards. The additional fluid assists in expelling the toxins from your body and aids in the repair of the muscles. If you do not drink enough fluids you may feel dehydrated and you will not get the full benefits out of your treatment.
