Indian Head Massage
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
This
massage is over a thousand years old and is known as
champrissage in its country of origin (Champri-to shampoo –
Sage- to
massage). It was traditionally a massage of the scalp used by women to
keep their hair strong and healthy and has been practised for over
1,000 years
The western adaptation of this technique
was introduced by Narendra Mehta in the 1980’s;. He came to
England in
the 1970s to train as a physical therapist and in 1978 returned to
India to study the benefits and practice of champrissage, he
incorporated the face, neck, shoulders and upper arms to turn this
treatment into a therapy whose popularity continues to grow.
This
treatment combines both the physical and energetic systems of the body.
The massage of the back, arms, neck, shoulders, scalp and face help to
release tension and improve the muscle condition. The work in the
chakras balances the bodies upper energy systems helping to bring about
inner calm and clarity of mind. |
