Indian Head Massage

 Indian Head Massage known as "Champissage" in India is part of the ancient healing system of Ayurveda - the science of life, which is probably the oldest recorded form of medical treatment dating back for thousands of years. It has played a very important role in Indian life as a principle method of relieving pain and healing.

 

Champi is an original Indian word meaning head massage. Indian Champissage includes massage of the shoulders, upper arms, neck, scalp, face, ears and energy balancing.

Indian Head Massage can provide relief from aches and pains, stress symptoms, insomnia, promote hair growth, soothe, comfort and rebalance your energy flow which gives you a deep sense of peace, calm and tranquility.

A practitioner of Indian Head Massage would have been taught a technique which withdraws their mind from their senses - only when the practitioner is able to focus inwards can Indian Head Massage become effective as a healing therapy. Healing is a natural power in all humans - we all have the ability to heal.

It is only possible if we have the kind of willpower not interrupted by our lower mind, which means a practitioner of Indian Head Massage will have been taught an advanced form of massage for healing.

This massage incorporates deep thumb and finger pressure, friction as well as stroking and laying of hands. It includes a massage of the shoulders, neck, scalp and face. It reduces muscular and nervous tension and improves circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid. This fully oxygenates the cells, flushing out toxins. It also stretches and mobilizes the tissues of the neck and shoulders, stimulates and improves scalp circulation and hair growth. It relaxes the scalp and tones up muscles thus helping to relieve headaches, eyestrain and focus concentration. Leaves you with a feeling of peace and tranquility. The therapist is highly sensitive and aware, rather than imposing their ideas on to you, which can often mask, but not cure your symptoms.
