Why people love our Indian head massage in Sheffield
Indian head massage is based on a traditional technique practised in India for generations. Your therapist works through your upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp and face with a mix of kneading, gentle pressure and soothing strokes. It sounds simple, but the feeling of having your scalp massaged is wonderfully calming – most clients are ready for a nap by the end!
Many clients who are prone to tension headaches, or who spend long days hunched over a laptop, tell us it helps them unwind and feel clearer-headed. It's also brilliant if you don't want to undress for a massage.
What happens during your treatment
- Welcome and a chat. We'll ask where you hold tension and whether you'd like oil on your scalp (lovely for your hair, but you may want to wash it afterwards).
- Settling in. You'll sit in a comfortable chair, fully clothed – just loosen anything tight around your neck.
- Shoulders and neck. Your therapist begins by easing the knots across your upper back, shoulders and neck.
- Scalp and face. Then on to gentle, rhythmic massage of the scalp, finishing with soft pressure across the face and temples.
- Come round and aftercare. A glass of water, a few quiet moments, and some tips for keeping that loosened-up feeling.
Is it right for you?
Indian head massage is ideal if you're short on time, prefer to stay clothed, or carry most of your stress in your neck and shoulders. If you'd like the whole back worked on, try our back, neck and shoulder massage. For a calming treatment that also focuses on the head, Hopi ear candling is a lovely partner.
Before and after your visit
Come with clean, dry hair and remove earrings and necklaces if you can. If you choose oil, you might want to bring a hair tie or plan to wash your hair that evening. Afterwards, drink plenty of water and try to keep the rest of your day gentle.
Why Hudson & Wood

As a small, independent salon, we keep things relaxed and personal – and being on Sharrow Vale Road, just off Ecclesall Road, it's easy to pop in on a lunch break or after work on a Tuesday or Friday evening.

Your questions, answered
Do I need to get undressed?
+
No – you stay fully clothed and sit in a comfortable chair. Just loosen anything tight around your neck.
Will oil be used on my hair?
+
Only if you'd like it. Oil feels lovely and nourishes the scalp, but you may want to wash your hair afterwards, so it's completely up to you.
Can it help with headaches?
+
We can't promise it will, but many clients prone to tension headaches tell us they find it very relaxing and helpful. If you get frequent or severe headaches, please speak to your GP.
Can I have it when I'm pregnant?
+
Please let us know when you book. Our maternity massage is designed specifically for pregnancy.
How often should I book?
+
Whenever you need it! Some clients come every few weeks when work is busy.
