Why Indian head massage

Relaxation that supports your scalp

An ancient holistic therapy adapted for modern hair and scalp care — easing tension while encouraging healthy circulation.

Tension relief

Focused work on the scalp, neck, and shoulders helps release tightness from stress, posture, and daily strain.

Circulation boost

Massage techniques encourage blood flow to the scalp — supporting nourishment toward the hair follicles.

Tailored essential oils enhance relaxation and complement your scalp and hair goals.

Holistic wellbeing

Calms the nervous system and complements clinical hair programmes as restorative, non-invasive care.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We booked a £40 consultation for my 15 year son who is worried about his hairline. Sarah was incredibly welcoming and friendly. It’s clear she is really knowledgeable and was able to look at my son’s scalp and assess his hair. My son felt very comfortable and has been reassured. He left with loads of great tips and routines to keep ahead of, and prevent, hair loss. I would definitely recommend this Clinic.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had my first consultation with Sarah regarding some hair growth concerns I’d been experiencing. From the moment I arrived at the clinic I was met with a super friendly and welcoming lady. Straight away felt at ease which was very reassuring. Sarah listened to all of my concerns and was very thorough with looking at my hair and scalp. Sarah was very open and honest with her findings and I have since received a very in depth report with details of how best to treat my symptoms. I am very hopeful and excited to start my hair growth journey with Sarah! Would absolutely recommend. Thankyou again xx

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a 'tonic' it was to see Sarah. From walking through the door we felt at ease, listened too, and understood . Sarah is so knowledgeable, easy to talk too and very approachable. We left with a feeling of hope ...can't wait for the follow up appointment  ❤️.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sarah is extremely knowledgeable, and highlighted issues I wasnt even aware of. She explained the reasons and cause of my issues and explained clearly and concisely my options without trying to upsell her own services. Ill definitely be back for a follow up in a few months and to discuss next steps.

FAQs

Common questions

How is Indian head massage different from a scalp facial?

Indian head massage is a holistic therapy focused on relaxation, tension relief, and circulation through massage and essential oils. Scalp facials include cleansing and exfoliation for scalp renewal — many clients enjoy both at different visits.

Will essential oils affect my hair?

Oils are applied sparingly and chosen for your session. We can adjust or minimise use if you have sensitivities — let us know when you book.

How often should I book?

Monthly sessions work well for ongoing tension and wellbeing. Hair growth membership clients receive sessions as part of their plan.

Is there any downtime?

None — you may feel deeply relaxed afterward. Hair can look slightly oily if oils are used; this usually settles after your next wash.

Can I have this during a PRP or clinical treatment plan?

Yes — it complements clinical programmes as restorative care. Your trichologist will advise on timing around injectable or intensive scalp treatments.
