The massage involves work on the upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp and face and can be done with or without essential oils depending upon your wishes. It can also be done over clothes, or with the back area exposed if using oils. Indian Head Massage works on the physical, psychological and subtle levels and the techniques used represent a de-stressing programme for the whole body, attacking stress in an immediate way by releasing muscular tension and stimulating blood flow. This type of massage induces a sense of calmness, tranquility and releases anxieties. It can help to improve concentration and alertness, relieve mental and physical tiredness, edginess and depression.   HOPI EAR CANDLES Hopi ear candling can aid many conditions of the ears, nose, throat and head and bring around a general feeling of wellbeing for the whole body and mind. The traditional use of ear candles can be traced back to the Indians of North & South America and Shaman healers. Ear candles work on the chimney principle by drawing a column of air through the External Auditory Canal, which vibrates gently massaging the eardrum.  During the treatment you will feel comforting warmth and can hear a light crackling sound - said to sound like rain. Following candling a gentle facial massage will aid lymph drainage.  This helps to maintain balance, intensifies the achieved energy flow and completes the treatment.
