– Indian head massage –

Indian Head Massage works by stimulating blood flow throughout the scalp, neck, and shoulder regions—areas that often accumulate tension and stiffness. This enhanced circulation delivers a fresh supply of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles, skin, and hair follicles, promoting overall tissue health and vitality. At the same time, the increased movement of blood and lymph supports the body’s natural detoxification processes by helping to flush out metabolic waste and toxins more efficiently. As a result, the practice not only relaxes and rejuvenates these upper-body areas but also contributes to improved well-being and a greater sense of balance.

– Australian Tom Shiatsu –

The Bowen technique was developed in the 1950s in Australia by the late Thomas A. Bowen (1903-1982).  He was fascinated by the different postures people had, and how these postures related to their symptoms of pain.

Mr. Bowen’s approach was to reset the tension in specific muscles and muscle groups by using unique stretch-and-roll-through moves.  After each move, he allowed the body to rest and integrate the changes.  He claimed that he could sense minute vibrations in the soft tissues and that this tension in the muscles helped him find the exact locations to perform his moves.

He achieved amazing results.  According to a 1974 survey by Australia’s Victorian Government, Tom was completing over 13,000 sessions per year.  In over 85% of his cases, the problems for which his clients sought treatment were completely resolved.
