Head-to-Toe Indulgence: Indian Head Massages, Migraine Therapy, Reflexology, and Detoxifying Body Scrubs for the Ultimate Spa Experience

May 1 2023

Our modern lifestyles are so fast-paced and jam-packed with commitments and responsibilities that most people don’t have the time to properly take care of themselves. Everyone is walking around carrying massive amounts of stress and toxic loads within their bodies that negatively affect their health and well-being. Being in this constant state of mental, physical, and toxic stress often leads to issues like migraines, skin problems, and muscle tension. To counteract this you need the ultimate spa experience to melt away your stress, detoxify your body and restore balance. Here are some of the best spa services to help you do just that.

Ayurvedic Indian Head Massage

This massage technique originates from ancient Ayurvedic practices dating back more than 2000 years. The treatment focuses on massaging acupressure points with a circular motion all along the head, neck, and shoulders. It typically starts with the shoulder as this is where most upper body tension is held. Then the flowing massage strokes move up the neck to work out areas of tension there. Finally, the acupressure points along the head and scalp are massaged. Indian head massage has many benefits including:

• Increases blood flow and oxygenation within the scalp to promote healthy hair follicles and stimulate hair growth
• Releases tension in the head and neck to relieve muscle stiffness and pain and prevent tension-related headaches and migraines.
• Promotes relaxation to help alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety
• Relieves stress and quiets the mind to boost memory
• Promotes circulation of blood and the lymphatic system in the head, neck, and shoulders
• Improves sleep quality through relaxation and stress relief
  

Migraine Therapy

Migraines are one of the worst kinds of headaches, and frequent migraines can really interfere with your quality of life. Spa migraine therapy is a service that you can add to any spa service to help relieve and prevent debilitating migraines. This natural, safe, and holistic, treatment uses targeted massage techniques, aromatherapy oils, and cold stones to relieve pressure and inflammation and relieve muscle tension that contributes to the development of stress headaches and migraines. We will develop a customized treatment plan to best help you manage your migraines. Benefits of migraine therapy include:

• Reduces your headache pain
• Reduce headache intensity and severity
• Reduces the duration and frequency of migraines
• Reduces your perception of pain
• Reduces muscle tension
• Reduces the need for medication to relieve and prevent migraine pain
  

Reflexology

Reflexology is a type of spa therapy that applies gentle pressure to specific points on the feet, hands, and ears to alleviate stress and restore balance in your body. It is believed that there are points on the feet, hands, and ears, that affect every area of your body, and by using acupressure techniques on these points balance can be restored and stress relieved in their corresponding parts of the body. Reflexology treatments can help you feel less stressed, more energetic, and feel less pain. Reflexology treatments are performed in a relaxing spa setting with soft music, low lights, and aromatherapy oils and sessions are typically 30-60 minutes long. Some benefits of reflexology include:

• Promotes relaxation
• Improves the function of your nerves
• Improves your brain power
• Increases circulation within your body
• Helps your body release and eliminate toxins
• Boosts your energy levels and metabolism
• Reduces headaches
• Safely relieves menstrual and pregnancy-related discomforts
  

Detoxifying Body Scrubs

Body scrubs help to detoxify both your skin and your body. Over time your skin can become clogged with dead skin cells, debris, and toxins that negatively affect the health of your skin. A detoxifying scrub is a skincare service that sloughs away all of the buildups, draws all of the gunk out of your pores, and gives your skin a healthy glow. The scrub detoxifies your body by stimulating your lymphatic system. The scrubbing motions of this body service get the lymph flowing more freely to carry toxins to your liver and kidney to be removed from your body. It also stimulates blood flow and oxygenation of your tissues. Your body will thank you with less stress, clearer and more radiant skin, and a brighter complexion. Some of the benefits of detoxifying body scrubs are:

• Removes dead skin buildup
• Promotes skin rejuvenation
• Unclogs pores
• Draws out ingrown hairs and toxins
• Smooths and evens skin tone
• Stimulates circulation of blood and lymph for better oxygenation and toxin removal
• Soothes and relaxes your mind
