Shiro Abhyanga | Indian head and back massage

Indian head and back massage Shiro Abhyanga is an Ayurvedic massage where our spa massage masters from India focus on the head, neck, shoulder and back areas.

Shiro Abhyanga massage regulates all processes in the body, positively affects the human endocrine system, improves brain activity, memory, sleep, and concentration. It also strengthens the nervous system, calms the mind, soothes migraines, reduces hair loss and stimulates hair growth.

This massage balances the activity of the pituitary gland, which regulates growth, blood pressure, lactation, thyroid activity, water balance in the body and the conversion of nutrients into energy.

The pineal gland is also stimulated during the massage, which produces the very important immune-boosting and supporting hormone melatonin. Shiro Abhyanga improves memory, attentiveness, concentration, and strengthens the nervous system.

Indian massage therapists use moderate, deeper, stronger movements to massage the back and gentle, slow, circular movements to massage the head.

The massage is performed with warm oil in the Indian tradition.
