What is an Indie Head Massage?
Indie head massage is a relaxing holistic treatment that uses a variety of pressure and techniques including acupressure massage on the head, face, neck, upper back and shoulders to manipulate the soft tissue. It is performed with a firm yet soothing series of movements and aims to re-balance your body's energies.
Indie head massage is an ancient complementary therapy, based on the Ayurveda system (translated as the ‘science of life’) of healing that has been practiced in India over for over a thousand years.
This therapy is particularly beneficial to people who are desk bound and experience pain and tension in the upper body.
