Head massage is not only a relaxing treatment, it is also a powerful preventative therapy. This book covers techniques from Indian head massage, Shiatsu, Ki healing, and accupressure. There are techniques for working on pressure points, meridians, zones, still points, muscles etc. to reduce stress and tension, lower blood pressure, disperse toxins, boost immunity, and help hormonal balance. The pulsing rhythms of the cerebrospinal fluid are balanced and a calming relaxation is brought to the fascia - the inner connective tissue running throughout your body - which, if it is in a state of constant tension, can detrimentally affect your whole health.
'Ste-by-step Head Massage' also combines massage with meditations and visualisations to produce a state of deep relaxation in which the body's own self healing mechanisms are encouraged into a harmony which brings about whole body well-being.
'Step-by-step Head Massage' contains fully illustrated basic techniques, programmes for self treatment and working with a partner - in the seated and lying down positions, ear accupressure, treatments for the eyes (which can help to stabilise and even improve some eye conditions) and a chapter on treatments for over twenty common ailments. There is a separate chapter about meditations. A chapter of meditations and strokes to encourage the development of the senses and to open awareness. Meditations also accompany all treatments to focus and enhance the depth of self healing. Illustrated guides to meridians, still points in the head and neck; pressure points, areas and zones of the face and ears; areas of the endocrine and lymphatic systems, which are located in the head and neck, are also included.
By using these techniques to focus and direct the massage, not only will the condition of your hair and scalp improve, but your whole being will be brought into balance, producing good health.
Other features and reviews of 'Step-by-step Hea Massage' have appeared on TV, radio and in the press.

Great book for all,
By Subbanna Varanasi "Iron Chef India" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Step by Step Head Massage (Hardcover)
Growing up in South India, and being the last child in the family, it was always my job to apply oil to the head of my mother and sister each time they took a "head bath". I did that till I was 16 or so. So, I always thought I knew what all there is to know about a head massage. But this book was a revelation. I am a massage therapist now and the head massage is an extension of the massage I give to my clients. They are just thrilled and I am flabbergasted at the response I am getting. Detailed yet not boring, very well written and great pictures to match, makes it so much easier to grasp the nuances. Must read for everyone !
