› Performing shiroabhyanga

The Ayurveda head massage shiroabhyanga

is primarily carried out with the client sitting down. This is the best way to reach the head, back and décolleté area. The head massage alternates between stimulating and calming massage techniques. The concluding facial massage is carried out with the client lying on his or her back. Hair, face and body oils are applied which have been chosen to suit the person’s needs.

› Effects of shiroabhyanga

Depending on the massage technique, shiroabhyanga

may have a stimulating or relaxing effect. This depends on the constitution and the needs of each guest.

The hair oil, which is massaged into the scalp, nourishes it and gives rise to strong, beautiful hair and strengthens the musculature located beneath the scalp.
Furthermore, the blood flow of the scalp increases, which in turn results in an improved supply of oxygen and nutrients to the brain. At the same time, the removal of harmful substances is increased.

This massage can also be used to combat headaches.
