subject: Head Massage: Alleviate Aches More Effectively [print this page] Are you stressed? Do you dread returning to work having had a nice relaxing weekend? Even though you are happy to have a job, it can be awfully stressful in the workplace. You wish for some sort of relief from all of this (short of a two-week vacation to Hawaii!). All that built up negative energy caused by energy channel blockage. Prescription medication isn't always the solution, nor is over the counter medicine. A head massage can potentially clear these channels, thereby restoring any ailments that are caused by it. In order to feel good, healthy, one must have proper energy flow, otherwise, problems such as stress, aches, pains and baldness may ensue!
Have you ever had any type of massage? Do you think this is something new? No, it is not a new medical breakthrough, this art has been practiced throughout the world. Chinese records dating back 3,000 years document its use; the ancient Hindus, Persians and Egyptians applied forms of massage for many ailments; and even Hippocrates wrote papers recommending the use of rubbing and friction for joint and circulatory problems. Massage is the manipulation of superficial layers of muscle and connective tissue.
Massage therapy became popular in the US in the 1800s and grew in popularity until the 1940s. The development of modern medicine discounted its benefits, and its use dwindled. It made a re-appearance in the 1960s when nurses began to use it to alleviate pain in patients. In the 1996 Summer Olympics massage was deemed a core medical service, this gave it great credibility. Head massage, or champissage is practiced all over Europe and was brought to the US in the 1970s.
The reason that head massage works is that so much of our nervous system is in our heads. We get regular massages for our bodies, why not for our heads. A scalp massage can improve circulation which helps if you get headaches. You can get a head massage in a spa, salon or even at home. The massage itself lasts anywhere between 25 - 30 minutes, can be done with or without oils. In a salon, you will be seated in a chair and the massage technician will give you a luxurious head massage. Unlike many massages, you will remain fully clothed if you go for the option of a no-oil massage. If you want oil, you can choose to wear something to protect your clothing.
Do you feel the urge yet? It has benefited many. My father went for a head massage to treat his tinnitus. If nothing else, you will be relaxed and uplifted. With this positive energy flowing, you know you will feel better. You will sleep better which will help you with concentration in every-day tasks. Your blood and lymph circulation will improve. Just head over to your local spa, talk with a masseuse. You will surely feel better!
