What Are the Benefits of a Head, Neck & Shoulder Massage?

Head massages have benefits such as hair growth promotion, lowered blood pressure, and more. They may be beneficial for headaches as well.

Head massage is a type of therapeutic massage that focuses on treating the patient through conducting massage techniques on the head and on the areas surrounding it such as the face, neck, upper arms and shoulders. It uses gentle massage strokes on these parts to stimulate the nerves, loosen up tight muscles, relax superficial tissues, and remove stress both emotionally and physically.

1. It Aids Digestion:

Holding yourself in an inverted position reverses the effects of gravity on the digestive organs, helping stimulate the movement of stuck wastes, relieving gas pains, and inducing an overall restorative effect on your digestion. It’s best to practice this pose before you eat or a few hours after, to avoid acid reflux.

2. Pain and Stiffness:

A torn rotator cuff or dislocated shoulder can make it difficult to move your arm, but so can simply sitting in one position for too long. No matter what causes the stiffness or soreness, shoulder massage is an effective way of increasing your range of motion. That's because it increases the supply of fresh blood to your muscles, providing them with oxygen-rich nutrients.

3. It helps calm a headache:

Reversing the effects of gravity can help alter your blood pressure—which can be just what the doctor ordered if you’re suffering from a tension headache, or from a headache caused by a change in blood pressure.

4. Improves Blood Circulation:

Improves blood circulation to the head and neck area before speeding up the interchange of oxygen, nutrients, carbon dioxide and waste.

5. Hair growth:

It helps relieve headaches and stimulates the nerves on your head. It exercises the scalp and stimulates blood circulation within your head to promote hair growth. It also strengthens hair roots and is thought to help prevent baldness.

6. It Relaxes the Mind:

Regular massage reduces stress, anxiety, feeling of depression. Human touch connects one person to another. Gently hand relaxing touch is important part of our massage treatment. It makes you feel safe and being nurtured and cared.

7. Relieve Anxiety:

Besides making you feel super excellent and pretty eminent, the Head Shoulder Neck massage will allay your worries, ease the built-up tension in your muscles and relieve both sinusitis and anxiety

8. Improving Function of the Lymph System:

A head, neck, and shoulder massage is one of the best possible methods of curing pain in the upper extremities. It not only helps with pain relief, but it also restores complete range of motion. The massage will provide deep relaxation to the stressed muscles, stimulate the flow of blood, and improve the functioning of the lymph system.

9. Remove Waste Products:

When muscles work, they burn oxygen and glucose and produce lactic acid. This can build up in the muscles and add to muscle soreness. Think of it as sticky honey getting in between the muscle fibres.

10. Relieve Shoulder Pain:

A shoulder massage is one of the best possible methods of curing pain in the shoulders. It not only helps in pain relief, but also restores complete motion in the affected shoulder. Shoulder massage provides deep relaxation to the stressed shoulder muscles.
