indian head massage
Indian Head Massage traces back to the ways of Ayuvedic medicine. Used for over 4000 years to improve overall health, the practice focus's on parts of the body most prone to tension and stress, the head, neck and shoulders.
what happens during a treatment?
​
Relaxing onto a massage bed the upper back, neck, shoulder areas and scalp are massaged, facial pressure points are then manipulated to relieve sinus pressure and stimulate circulation. Whether you're looking for a deeply relaxing massage to sooth away the day or to re-energise and invigorate your mind and body I can tailor the massage to meet your needs.
​
Suitable during the second and third trimester of pregnancy.

organic, natural and ethical massage oils
I use a range of organic oils in my treatments, all thoughtfully selected for their nourishing properties. If you choose to use oils on your hair and scalp I tend to opt for traditional Ayuvedic oils (coconut oil and sweet almond oil). I have a range of blended oils for the skin to choose from, each with their own properties to promote relaxation, to energise or to ease aching muscles. If you have allergies or a skin condition, get in touch before booking an appointment so that I can make sure I have the perfect oil for you in stock.
