Indian Head Massage is an ancient Ayurvedic healing system practiced all over India for thousands of years by those from everyday man and his family to royalty.
As the head holds many pressure points relating to the rest of the body – particularly to the emotional centers in the brain, Indian Head Massage is particularly effective for emotional/mental stress.
At Green Tara College we pride ourselves on the unique and beautiful Indian Head Treatment that we teach.
“I completed the Indian Head Massage course with Green Tara in June 2024. It was a truly amazing course, taught to such a high standard by Majella. This is a practical, holistic and spiritual teaching of Indian Head Massage that included chakra balancing and energy cleansing. This is a stand alone therapy and the training at Green Tara ensures the therapist will be providing their clients with the highest standard of treatment. For ongoing learning the Moodle facility is easy to use and contains clear, precise videos of the treatments. I can’t recommend Green Tara highly enough, a wonderful facility in Navan, Co. Meath. . . . Martina June 2024 “
