Hair oiling and scalp massage are truly holistic therapies that have been practiced for thousands of years in the Indian subcontinent. This ancient health and beauty technique not only benefits our hair and scalp but is also an excellent stress reliever, and as most of know very well, when we are calm and relaxed we automatically look younger and more youthful. In India it is customary for family members to give each other weekly scalp massages to condition the hair, balance the scalp and aid relaxation. Although it is always more beneficial and enjoyable to receive a scalp massage from someone else, self treatment is also very beneficial.
