Indian Head
Massage
By Louise Buckley

...it allows you to experience an amazing level of
relaxation and an overall sense of well-being.
Indian Head Massage, aka Champissage, is a highly effective modality that promotes balance. It works to release
stress that is often forgotten about by focusing on the
face, head, neck, shoulders, upper arms and upper back
where key energy centers are located within your body.
This healing art belongs to the ancient Indian system of
medicine known as Ayurveda. A Sanskrit word meaning
“science of life” or “knowledge of life”(Ayur = life, Veda =
science or knowledge). The Ayurvedic approach to health
promotes the balance of body, mind and spirit as well as
the promotion of long life.
The following are some of the many health benefits to this
non-invasive alternative:
• Improved blood circulation; increased oxygen to brain
• Helps with the balancing of Chakras
• Relaxes uncomfortable muscles and eases stiffness
• Stimulates blood circulation; drains away accumulated
toxins
• Improved lymphatic drainage helping the removal of
waste, helping the immune system
• Triggers the release of “feel good” endorphins creating a
euphoric sensation of contentment and happiness
• Promotion of hair growth
• Helps to dissipate mental tiredness, stress, depression;
leading to better concentration and clearer thinking
An Indian Head Massage can also help relieve issues such
as eyestrain, tension headaches, migraines, earaches, Tinnitus (ringing in the ear), jaw ache, sinusitis congestion,
insomnia, and disturbed sleep. And most importantly, it
allows you to experience an amazing level of relaxation
and an of overall sense of well-being.
