Indian Head Massage

Indian Head Massage is a holistic therapy from the ancient healing practice of Ayurveda. This treatment is a slow-paced, soothing massage focusing on the upper chest, shoulders, neck, face, scalp, and upper back to relieve tension and stress, improve mental clarity, and stimulate detoxification—bringing your energy back into balance.

This massage works with the four higher chakras (our more intuitive energy centers) beginning at the heart, moving to the throat, the third eye, and then the crown. However, an Indian Head Massage feels like a massage for the whole body, as these energy points influence every other center within.
