Indian head massage
Indian head massage is adapted from Ayurvedic technique and works the shoulders, neck, scalp and face through a series of pressure points. It is done seated and you stay dressed.

It is a good choice if you carry your tension high - in the jaw, the base of the skull, the shoulders - or if a full body massage is more than you want. It is also the one people book at the end of a long travel day, because it takes very little setting up.
I completed a dedicated seminar in this technique in 2014, held under the auspices of the World Massage Federation.
Prices are given when you get in touch, so you always hear the current rate.
