Indian head massage helps increase joint mobility and flexibility in the neck and shoulders, improves blood circulation and lymphatic flow, frees knots of muscular tension, relaxes connective tissue, and aids in the elimination of accumulated toxins and waste products. It is particularly good for releasing tension in the muscle of the scalp that can often lead to tension headaches. Relaxation is also a key benefit.
