Indian Head Massage originates from India. It is an ancient therapy passed down through the generations, from father to son, from mother to daughter. IT was brought to Britain in the 1970s by Narendra Mehta who adapted it to suit the western way of life. It treats the upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp and face. It is a very relaxing treatment both physically and mentally.
It is a particularly apt therapy for treating the ailments of the modern world – stress and tension. With so much work now done on computers in the workplace the most common ailments are tension in the back and neck, which leads to headaches. Working constantly with the computer screen can also lead to eyestrain.
