INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE

THE HISTORY

Indian head massage, also known as Champissage, originates from a hair treatment incorporating massage, used by Indian women to maintain the condition of their long, dark hair & to protect it from the drying effects of the sun.

Oils such as Almond, Olive, Coconut & Henna were massaged into the scalp & pulled through the hair. Herbs & spices were often added to improve the smell of the oil & to add to the overall therapeutic effect of the treatment.

Apart from the obvious benefits of an oil treatment to the hair, the massage itself would have helped tremendously by improving circulation to the scalp, thereby stimulating hair growth. Many barbers in India began to offer invigorating head massage as part of their treatment. The upper back, shoulders,  neck, scalp and face are worked on during the treatment using a variety of massage movements.

THE TREATMENT

Indian Head Massage is a very effective holistic treatment. It relaxes the mind & when the mind is calm the body can begin to heal itself. The massage works on the upper Chakras which help to clear the blockages in these areas, further increasing the flow of energy through the body which allows the body to heal & repair.

The Chakras are worked from the upper to the lower. By clearing the upper chakras, the released energy eventually filters down to the lower chakras unblocking them too.

Indian head massage has beneficial impact on the systems of the body like lungs, circulatory & lymphatic system, nervous & muscular system.

As in Chinese medicine, foot massage is relaxing & extremely powerful, due to the fact that we have over 2000 nerve endings in each foot. The Chinese believe the body is split into 5 meridians (energy lines) on each side.

Massaging the feet & lower legs can help with the re-alignment of these meridians. That aside, massaging the legs upwards will help the lymphatic drainage system to drain excess fluid from the tissues, which, in turn, help the body fight infection & disease.

This Wonderful treatment helps to reduce anxiety & depression by increasing Serotonin (feel good hormone) & as a result,  your  heart rate &  blood pressure will decrease & help you to relax.
