This course is eminently practical and is intended for anyone interested in learning Indian Head Massage.​ This massage is known in India as Champi and has been practiced for over 1000 years in therapy centers, family homes and even Indian barbershops at the end of the cut.

It is known in Europe and the United States as Indian Head Massage, and has been widely used due to its enormous relaxation capabilities and proven therapeutic effects.

​

It became famous in the West because it is shorter than usual (30 to 45mins) and can be practiced in a chair in companies or other workplaces providing moments of relaxation during the working period.

​

There are statistics that prove that this massage, 1 to 2 times a week in the workplace, improves the quality and efficiency of the worker's performance and that's why it is so requested in offices.

​

In addition to having a great relaxing and well-being effect, it combats stress, helps to improve blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, eliminates headaches, promotes hair growth, combats insomnia and anxiety, neck pain, muscle stiffness in the shoulders, neck and neck and increases cerebral oxygenation.
