Indian Head Massage

£35
30 mins

Indian head massage is a deeply relaxing treatment that focuses on the areas where stress often builds up first, your scalp, neck, shoulders and upper back. In just 30 minutes, it helps ease tightness from desk work, screen time, jaw clenching and everyday rushing about. Expect steady, comfortable pressure, a calmer headspace and that lighter feeling through the shoulders when you stand up. It is a great choice when you want real relief, without needing lots of time out.

More information

What your Indian head massage works on

Indian head massage is all about releasing tension in the upper body and settling the nervous system, without a long appointment.

  • Scalp massage to ease tightness, support circulation and quiet a busy mind.
  • Neck and shoulder work to soften knots and reduce that heavy, hunched feeling.
  • Upper back focus where tension often sits from driving, laptops and stress.
  • Pressure tailored on the day, from gentle and soothing to firmer where needed.
  • Option to avoid oils, or use a small amount if you prefer, you can tell us what suits you.

Indian head massage for tension, headaches and switch off time

This treatment suits you if you feel tight through the shoulders, get a stressy scalp, or notice headaches that start from your neck and posture. It is also ideal if you want to relax properly but you do not want a full body massage or a longer slot. Many clients like it as a reset during a busy week, especially around work deadlines, travel, or after lots of screen time.

How a 30 minute Indian head massage appointment runs

We start with a quick chat about where you hold tension, any sensitivity, and how you would like the pressure. You will be comfortably seated or lying down, and the massage is usually done over clothing around the neck, shoulders and upper back. The scalp work is unhurried and rhythmic, helping you drop your shoulders and breathe more easily.

After your Indian head massage, keeping the benefits going

Give yourself a few minutes before jumping back into a packed day. Drinking water and doing a couple of gentle neck rolls can help you stay looser for longer. If you choose oil, plan for relaxed hair afterwards, or bring a clip so you can head straight back out feeling comfortable.

If you are booking in Grange Park, Northampton, you can book online at a time that fits your diary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to undress for an Indian head massage?
No, you can stay fully dressed. The treatment works on the scalp, neck, shoulders and upper back, and is typically carried out over clothing where possible.
Will an Indian head massage use oil in my hair?
It can be done without oil if you prefer, especially if you are heading back to work or out afterwards. If you would like oil, we can discuss what feels comfortable for you at the start.
Can Indian head massage help with tension headaches?
It can help if your headaches are linked to tightness through the neck, shoulders or jaw. If you have migraines, frequent headaches, or anything medically complex, it is best to check with your GP and let us know before your appointment.
Is Indian head massage suitable if I am pregnant?
Many people enjoy massage during pregnancy, but suitability depends on your stage of pregnancy and how you are feeling. Please let us know you are pregnant when booking so we can advise and adapt positioning and pressure safely.
How often should I have an Indian head massage?
It depends on how quickly you build up tension and how you feel afterwards. Some clients book every couple of weeks for ongoing relief, others choose it as an occasional reset when life feels busy.
