Why should I book a scalp massage, you might ask yourself? 

Having a scalp massage helps with facial wrinkles. A relaxing scalp massage increases your hair thickness by stretching the cells connected to the hair follicles.  This, in turn, stimulates the hair follicles to produce thicker, healthy and shinier hair. It’s also thought that a scalp massage may help dilate blood vessels beneath the skin, thereby encouraging hair growth.    I am yet to meet a man or woman who would prefer to have thinner hair!

Dandruff and eczema can cause an itchy scalp and at least 50% of Americans will experience this in their lifetime.

Your scalp is the base for strong, healthy hair and can be the cause of many hair problems and forehead tension, which not only causes headaches, but also causes wrinkles.

Did you know that your scalp ages faster than your face?

Many people (me included) hold a lot of stress in their scalp.  After a 20 minute scalp massage I feel like I have had a  60 minute full body massage as this is where most of my tension sits.  There is nothing wrong with having a full body massage, as all massage including facial massage is good for the soul. It gets the blood pumping and relieves tension in stiff muscles that hold on to the stress.  Muscles have a wonderful way of saving past hurtful memories and storing them like a squirrel hoards its nuts.  The scalp is at the top of your body and likes to behave like the boss of all hurtful memories by keeping them there until they are massaged away, leaving your body, making you feel like you are floating on a cloud.

Those wrinkles you see on your forehead?

Yup, those wrinkles and fine lines etched into your forehead.  They started in the scalp and aim to make their way down.
