What is a Scalp Massage?
Many people carry tension in the head, neck, and shoulders without realising it.
A Scalp Massage is a simple yet effective way to release this tension, helping to ease headaches and reduce discomfort in the upper body.
This treatment focuses on the scalp and surrounding areas using targeted pressure points and gentle, flowing movements. These techniques can help calm the nervous system, encouraging a deeper sense of relaxation throughout the body.
The Dry Technique
We understand that you may be heading back to work or continuing your day after your visit. That’s why our Scalp Massage is performed completely dry, with no oils or lotions used.
You can leave our Putney centre feeling relaxed and refreshed, without needing to worry about your hair.
The Benefits: Why Add This Upgrade?
While it feels deeply soothing, a Scalp Massage also offers valuable therapeutic benefits, particularly for those experiencing stress, tension, or mental fatigue.
It is a great way to begin your massage, helping you settle into the treatment and let go of outside distractions.

Your Experience: What to Expect

The Consultation
You will be welcomed by our front of house team and guided through a short consultation form. This helps your therapist understand your medical history and any areas of concern.
If you experience regular headaches or tension in the head and neck, be sure to mention this so your treatment can be adapted accordingly.
The Treatment
Your therapist will review your consultation and discuss your preferred pressure.
Most clients enjoy gentle, calming movements for scalp work, but the pressure can be adjusted to suit your comfort, whether you prefer lighter or slightly firmer techniques.
