Indian Head Massage in Frome, Somerset

What is Indian Head Massage?

Indian Head Massage has its roots in traditional healing practices from India known as Champissage, where head and scalp massage has been used for centuries to support health, relaxation, and overall well-being.


It developed from ancient wellness traditions that recognized the importance of releasing tension and encouraging balance within the body and mind.

Today, Indian Head Massage is a deeply relaxing treatment that focuses on the head, scalp, neck, shoulders, and upper back – the areas where we most commonly hold tension.

Using a combination of soothing massage techniques and gentle rhythmic movements, the treatment helps release physical tightness while calming the nervous system.


Rather than working only on muscles, Indian Head Massage also encourages the flow of circulation and energy through the upper body. As tension melts away, the body can shift into a more restful state, allowing both mind and body to unwind naturally.

What to Expect from Your Indian Head Massage Treatment

Your Indian Head Massage session typically lasts 45 minutes and is designed to release tension, promote relaxation, and help restore a sense of balance and calm.

We begin with a short consultation where you will complete a health and well-being form.

You will then be asked to remove your top layers of clothing (underwear remains on) and place a towel comfortably around you. Once you are seated and relaxed, I will apply a nourishing, non-scented oil to your neck, shoulders, upper back, and upper arms.

During Your Indian Head Massage

The treatment begins by working through the upper back, shoulders, and neck using soothing massage techniques to release built-up tension and improve circulation. I will then move to the scalp, head, and face, using gentle, rhythmic movements to encourage deep relaxation and help quiet the mind.

The session is completed with a calming re-balancing of the chakras, helping to restore a sense of harmony and overall well-being.
