5.0 out of 5 stars A detailed book made easy to understand, 7 Nov 2004
By A Customer
This is a good quality written book about Indian Head Massage. It gives detailed information on anatomy and physiology, massage techniques, chakras and auras without confusing you with jargon. It is really easy to understand and it has quick quizzes to help you learn the information.

The massage techniques are clearly explained with text and photographs from the beginning of the treatment to the end. A full 30 - 40 minute treatment. At the end of the book is a memory card of all the techniques in order, for you to easily jog your memory when doing a treatment. I have found this really helpful and it has allowed me to put the sequence to memory pretty well.

The book also goes into working with energies and auras which I found really interesting. It is important when working with massage to know about energies etc, which I think all too often is missing.

It also explains a lot about how to include oils in the treatment. A technique used in India. Another thing which I found really handy is that it explains about the treatment procedure, contra-indications and how to provide a professional service as a practicioner.

I have just started practicing this type of massage and this book has been invaluable

This is an excellent book to be used by students and existing therapists alike.
Students will find it extremely useful as it covers regulations as well as Anatomy & Physiology needed for VTCT exams

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, excellent excellent!, 25 Jul 2006
By T. Dickson "PurpleGurple" (Nottinghamshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is great for both students and newly qualified practioners. The step-by-step techniques are easy to follow and the clear photographs complement the written text perfectly.
The anatomy and physiology section is detailed yet comprehensible and perfect for this level of study.
The self-assessment questions are good and definatly make you think about all aspects of what you are learning. They certainly prepared me for being questioned by both tutors and clients.
The course I completed hardly mentioned chakras etc at all (which was a shame and thankfully something I covered during Reiki classes) but the information on this subject in this book was informative and easy to follow.
This book also has a good chapter on health and safety - great for reference.

A very useful and excellent book that is well worth the money.
