Indian Head Massage Course
A full massage routine for Indian Head Massage, also known as Shiro (head) Abhyanga (massage).
Training is hands on over 2 days. Case studies follow. Fully accredited by CMA, with student membership available to my students. I love teaching this course and the routine is a full traditional hour long massage including shoulders, arms, neck, scalp and face. Lots of good grounding in Ayurvedic principles, diagnostics and oils. Information on balancing the three humours or Doshas. Learning about how to fight disease according to Ayurvedic laws of balance. This traditional sequence is taught dry and with traditional Ayurvedic oils for Vata, Pitta and Kapha elements to are harmonised. I have studied in India since 2004 … I have also completed a 3 year programme working with Ayurvedic doctors and scientists at the Kaivalyadhama research Institute in India, on a Yoga Therapy Degree…. and have been with my teacher for the past 20 years. I have also studied Indian head massage at the Ayurvedic Institute in London with the director and founder Amarjeet Bhamran.
The fees are inclusive of all training materials and case studies plus certificates on completion.
Abhyanga Full Body Ayurvedic Massage Training Course
In this traditional and very in-depth look at Ayurveda and its amazing benefits to our health, we learn a full traditional Ayurvedic routine.
Applied with love from the Indian ways of approaching wellbeing. It is a wonderful time out for the mind and invigorates the body and calms at the same time. It has many benefits…. but as its principle effects follow…. It is to rid the body of sluggish toxins and remove blockages in our energetic pathways … restoring equilibrium to body and mind. Specific oils for each Dosha and a basic guided knowledge of the whole Ayurvedic concept. This includes learning about Tridosha and 3 singular Doshas in Ayurveda and how to diagnose each individual in order to use the correct method and oil to re-balance the system and enhance the effects of the treatment itself. It is followed up by 4 case studies to gain certification to practice. No prior massage experience is necessary ….just the right intention. I have studied in India since 2004…I have also completed a 3 year programme working with Ayurvedic doctors and scientists at the Kaivalyadhama research Institute in India, on a Yoga Therapy Degree….and have been with my teacher for the past 20 years. This is something that I am passionate about….. I run only once or twice per year and it is embraced in its undiluted traditional style….it has changed my life and I hope it changes yours too.
“The Ayurvedic massage course at Prana for Life was extraordinarily rich. In concentrated and well structured days, I learned a lot about the technique, the underpinnings of Ayurveda and the appropriate oils to use. It was very well delivered and I feel confident to give these beautiful massages to clients, even if I had no previous experience of massage. Siobhan is very knowledgeable and compassionate. Her teaching was exceptional: clear, experiential and rooted in this amazing and beautiful tradition. The group, which was not overly big but very engaged, was great and supportive too and the massages I received were wonderful which is testament to how well people understood the teachings. It was also lots of fun and a surprisingly relaxing course!”

“I thoroughly enjoyed Siobhan’s Indian Head Massage Course. It’s been one of those ones that’s kept on giving and really inspired me to continue learning more about Ayurveda and the benefits of regular massage. I have no formal massage training so was a little unsure if I’d be able to pick everything up over the two-day training. I’m delighted to say that with Siobhan’s demonstrations, practical instruction and expert guidance I have.
When I came to practise and work on my case studies after the course I felt confident about the massage sequence, what I’d learned and how to work with clients. I’m really looking forward to sharing what I’ve studied here with others now, helping them feel better and improve their overall sense of wellbeing. Thank you so much Siobhan for providing such a wonderful experience on this course, I loved every minute.
