Indian Head Massage

This Level 3 qualification is an ideal first course if you are considering becoming a therapist and contains everything you need to practice Indian Head Massage as a fully insured therapist.

Indian Head Massage is also a great therapy to add to your portfolio if you are already a therapist. If you are already a qualified therapist with a valid anatomy qualification, talk to Jackie@calminginfluences.com about the qualified therapist course.

Indian Head is a very easy therapy to get into because it does not require you to invest in a lot of equipment. You don't need a special couch or chair and because Indian Head Massage can be carried out with the client fully clothed, you can literally do it anywhere.

The course contains the following modules:

 

History of Indian Head Massage
Indian Head Massage Techniques
Benefits of Indian Head Massage
Contraindications
Seated massage over clothes
Seated massage using oil
Massage using a massage couch
Balancing Chakras
