The History of Indian Head Massage

This form of massage featured in the earliest Ayurvedic texts dates back nearly 4000 years.

Indian Head Massage was originally developed by the women as part of their grooming routine. It also became part of the barbers treatment offering "champi" (head massage) as part of their treatment.

The development of this form of massage has been brought to our country by Narendra Mehta who has passed the skills on by running courses in Indian Head Massage
