Indian head massage in Leyton
A massage of the head, neck and shoulders. Book it on its own for 30 to 90 minutes, or paired with Swedish, deep tissue or reflexology as a fusion massage, at our spa on High Road Leyton, East London.
What the treatment covers
It focuses on the upper body only. If you’d like the whole body too, look at the pairings below.
What happens during an Indian head massage
1. A short consultation.
Your therapist asks where you feel tight, what pressure you like, and anything about your health they should know.
2. Your massage.
Your therapist works on the head, neck and shoulders, adapting the treatment as they go. Ask for more or less pressure at any point.
3. Your time.
Arrive 10 minutes early so the consultation happens calmly before your treatment starts.
Oil is optional. You can add an oil blend for £5 when you book: Relaxing, Energising, Muscle Mender, Detox, Stress Relief or Immune Boost. If you’d prefer no oil, simply don’t add one, and mention it at your consultation.
