Release Tension, Regain Clarity

Feeling overwhelmed by stress or weighed down by constant headaches? Our Head Reset Massage is a targeted, evidence-based, therapeutic treatment designed to release the tension that builds up from modern life. It is not just a quick scalp rub, it is a clinical approach developed by our award-winning therapists to reset your mind and body.

What Does This Treament Help?

This specialized treatment focuses on the areas where stress and tension accumulate most, the scalp, face, jaw, neck, and shoulders. By addressing these key zones, we relieve the pressure that causes headaches, migraines, and mental fatigue.

Our Therapeutic Approach

Our skilled therapists use a combination of techniques to provide a profound sense of relief:

  • Deep segment massage (TM) principles – applying our signature, proprietary deep tissue techniques to the neck and shoulders to release stubborn knots, deactivate chronic trigger points, and improve circulation.
  • Acupressure and myofascial release – used on the scalp, temples, and forehead to target fascial restrictions and acute trigger points that are the root cause of tension headaches.
  • Gentle face and jaw massage – specifically targets the temporomandibular joint (jaw hinge) to ease tension from clenching, reduce referred pain, and alleviate sinus pressure.
  • Targeted stretching techniques – applied to the neck muscles to increase flexibility, restore proper muscle length, and enhance your range of motion.

Who Is This Treament Suitable For?

This is the perfect treatment for anyone who spends long hours at a desk, students under pressure, or those who simply need a complete mental and physical reset. Let us help you clear your mind and restore a sense of calm and focus.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the same as an Indian Head Massage?

While it shares some elements (like scalp massage), our Head Reset Massage is a clinical treatment. It's less focused on traditional energy work and more focused on Western anatomy, trigger points, and fascial release to solve specific physiological problems like headaches and TMJ pain.

Will this mess up my hair?

We do perform a thorough scalp massage, which can make your hair a bit disorderly. We don't use excessive oil, but most clients prefer to schedule this on a day when they don't have an important event afterward. The relief is well worth it!

How much pressure do you use on the face and head?

The pressure is always tailored to you and your comfort. The work on the neck and shoulders can be firm to release knots. However, the work directly on the face, jaw, and scalp is typically much gentler and more precise, designed to soothe and release without causing pain.

I get headaches, but I'm not sure where they come from.

You're not alone. That's what we're here to assess. A vast majority of tension headaches are 'cervicogenic,' meaning they originate from muscle tightness in the neck and shoulders. Your therapist is an expert at identifying these patterns and can often find the trigger points responsible.

What if I'm very sensitive to touch on my head

Please let your therapist know. We can modify the entire session. Our goal is to make you feel safe and relaxed. We can use gentler techniques, check in with you more frequently, and adapt the treatment entirely to your comfort level.
