Indian
Head Massage
And Other Massage Therapies
How does it work?
Western Philosophy
-
· Knots
are removed and
tension held in
the muscles and tendons is released. This aids
relaxation.
-
· Treatments
lead to deeper breathing, which leads to more oxygen in the blood, resulting in
more oxygen reaching the brain.
-
· Massage
of the scalp encourages blood flow to the scalp and to the brain.
-
· Increased
oxygen to the brain allows
clearer thinking
and better concentration.
-
· Increased
blood flow to the scalp encourages
healthy hair
growth.
-
· Physical
contact with the
skin draws blood
to the surface, bringing essential nutrients with it. This helps the skin to
regenerate and repair itself.
-
· Posture,
and curvature of the spine can be improved by stretching and manipulating
muscles and tendons attached the skeleton underneath.
-
· The
lymphatic system is stimulated, increasing the response of the
immune system and
detoxification process.
-
· Our
minds and bodies are connected: the more stressed we feel, the more tense we
get, and vice versa. Relaxing the body combined with deeper breathing helps us
to relax our minds and relieves
stress and anxiety.
-
· Just
being the centre of attention and receiving a comforting physical touch for a
while is soothing.
· Most
importantly, treatments will make you FEEL GOOD. Nothing seems as bad and
everything good seems far more achievable when we’re on top of the world.
Eastern Philosophy
Treatments balance energy
by working on the higher charkas to achieve harmony and balance of mind, body
and spirit.
When performing TREATments that involve physical touch I'm also working on an
energy level. For me, massage is the perfect way to bring the spiritual
down to earth. Chakra balancing is part of every TREATment.
TREATments balance yin and yang; masculine and feminine; thought and feeling;
mind, body and spirit etc.
