Strictly limited to just 8 participants to allow plenty of hands-on practice and there are just 6 places left. Once the places are booked, the course is full.
Many Indian Head Massage courses teach only the seated routine.
In this training you’ll learn both versions of the treatment so you have far more flexibility in how you offer it.
The seated routine is perfect for:
workplaces
wellness days
events
quick stress-relief treatments
The lying routine is perfect for:
therapy rooms
combining with massage or reflexology
longer relaxation treatments
This means you can use the treatment in multiple ways to build your business.
Indian Head Massage is absolutely fantastic for stress and anxiety, headaches, migraines, sinus congestion, and tension in the head, neck and shoulders. It’s also one of the most deeply relaxing holistic treatments available.
It’s a wonderfully adaptable treatment. You can offer it as a stand-alone treatment, use it onsite in workplaces or events, or add it onto reflexology, massage, Reiki, facials, or other therapies to bring the whole treatment to the next level.
There’s something very special about working on a client’s head. I’ve often seen that when a client is very stressed or anxious, the moment you place your hands on their head they switch off and drop into relaxation mode. It’s incredible to see.
The course is certified, insurable and eligible for CPD points

This is a wonderfully popular treatment to offer in your therapy room.
You can also use it along with your massage, aromatherapy, reflexology or other holistic therapies.
