How do you prepare for an Indian head massage?

Communication with your massage therapist is key; sharing any specific concerns or areas of focus beforehand helps them tailor the massage to your needs, ensuring a more personalised and effective treatment.

The massage therapist ensures that you are properly supported and relaxed throughout the session, allowing you to fully benefit from the soothing and therapeutic effects of the massage.
Does Indian head massage include neck and shoulders?
Absolutely, Indian head massage includes massaging acupressure points along the entire upper body, including the neck and shoulders.
