Touch Therapy Head Massage

After a year of touch deprivation when we couldn’t even offer a soothing hand to someone upset , let alone give and receive hugs from our nearest and dearest , touch therapy has never been more vital .

Touch releases oxytocin which counteracts all the stress hormones . So on top of the obvious stresses of the pandemic , the lack of touch in itself will have raised levelshead massage of stress hormones . Having been a reflexologist for 11 years, Vanessa has always seen the benefits of having Head Massage as a complimentary extra nurturing technique she can use with her own clients in her studio but also in the many varied settings she has worked in, where having both skills as an offering has been a real benefit e.g NhS settings, for gift vouchers, for pamper afternoons, in big corporate workplace settings .

Head massage has been shown to reduce anxiety levels and the stress response by activating the parasympathetic nervous system to moderate , calm and relax the stress response . When we massage the head, we are working directly over the brain so it very quickly sends calming messages to the whole nervous system . Head massage has helped with many ailments , including sleep difficulties, migraines and sinus issues.

This beautiful training in which participants get a day of pampering too as they practise the learned techniques on each other has benefits for your Well-Being and Self Care too aswell as the lucky people you will then go on to nurture with the techniques .Taking care of ourselves is so important after the trials of self employment and the impact on our industry over the last couple of years .

The day begins with putting the massage techniques into the context of their many holistic benefits . Vanessa is keenly aware that we all learn in different ways and so uses her years of teaching experience to provide a variety of learning techniques during the day, from observing, practising, group work , paired work ,repetition , listening, sharing, writing/drawing /recording techniques etc etc . At the end of the day participants will have learnt a basic head massage routine developed from Vanessa's years of learning from NHS Teams across the UK and her own observations from tried and tested successful techniques with patients she has worked with herself . There will be time within the training to consider the far reaching benefits and potential settings the Head Massage Routine could be used in to develop your business . This will include time listening to experiences of other therapists, planning ideas together , then time to create your own business plan moving forward using the techniques learnt . There are so many trainings whereby we can get inspired with new techniques and ideas, then go back to our busy lives and sadly these can be forgotten .After being a trainer for many years, Vanessa always makes the time in the day for forward planning to make things happen after the course .
