...the blood circulation and to affect the nerve endings present there. We know that under the scalp, there are a large portion of the nerve endings of the whole body. So, if you really want to feel the difference then do not miss out on your scalp massage session.

The scalp massage starts with simple pulling of your hair. This releases negative energy from your body. After this, the therapist starts to move a little bit to one side and starts the facial massage.

The facial massage is meant to relax all the muscles of the face. Start with the forehead, which is where the majority of headaches originate. Also, this area is concerned with pain from the sinuses. So, applying circular massage movements with the fingers, palms, and finger tips will help provide relief from annoying sinus pain.

Then we move on to the ridges of the eyes and the nose. Staring at a computer screen for a long time puts a lot of stress on your eyes. After a long day of working in front of a computer, you may want to get someone to press the inner angles of your eyes and then move downwards towards your nose to help relax this area. Use this technique several times and you will feel the difference.

Pulling down the upper lip and pulling up the lower lip is a smart move to relax the muscles controlling both lips. Proceed to the cheek bones and move your finger tips downward toward the chin to massage the cheek muscles deeply and thoroughly. This back and forth movement will help massage all the muscles in this area.

Do not miss the chin where a lot of stress is hidden. Position both palms on the chin and pull upwards for relieving stress from that area.

At the end of the massage session, the therapist will proceed a little downward towards your neck. Massaging the back of the neck is the icing on the top of the cake and will make you feel completely relaxed and stress free.
