In India, head massage has been part of daily life for a thousand years.  Women first developed it as part of a relaxing and soothing routine to keep their hair lustrous and strong.

Barbers began to give champi (an invigorating head massage) to their male clients.

Indian Head Massage as we know it today was developed by Narendra Mehta to include upper arms, shoulders, neck scalp and face.

As well as being hugely relaxing, Indian Head Massage may also assist with:

  • Anxiety
