Therapies - Champissage - Indian Head Massage

Indian Head Massage is based on the ancient Ayurvedic healing system and has been practiced in India for over a thousand of years. Traditionally used by Indian women on each other through generations as part of their grooming routine and by barbers on men, who would offer 'champi' (head massage) as part of their service. A form of this Indian tradition reached the western world long before the practice itself, in the guise of 'shampoo' which is derived from the Hindi word 'champi'.

At Holistic Concepts I've tailored my therapy to suit the stressful environments of the western world. Focusing on the three higher Chakras (important energy centres of the body) and treating these so the body's entire energy system can be rebalanced.

Indian Head Massage involves working with firm & gentle rhythm to help clear blockages and relieve the uncomfortable build up of tension. The therapy focuses on the upper body, head, neck, shoulders and face. It's effect is not only physical, it also works on an emotional level too, calming the spirit, promoting relaxation and relieving stress.

It is a safe, accessible, and convenient therapeutic treatment, performed seated through light clothing and with little disturbance to the hair.
