Reseña del editor:

This book which was previously published as ‘Indian Head Massage in Essence’ has now been completely revised and updated. ‘Indian Head Massage, the Essential Guide’ provides therapists, students and the public with an interesting and accessible introduction to Indian head massage. The book includes fascinating information on ayurveda, doshas, chakras and marma points. It also includes comprehensive information on relevant anatomy, physiology and pathology as well as the benefits of Indian head massage and contraindications to treatment. It goes on to concentrate on practical application with step by step instructions on treatment and massage techniques. Information on Indian head massage courses and advice for therapists is provided, along with a list of relevant websites, further reading and a very useful glossary of terms. Written in an accessible style with photos and illustrations, numerous frequently asked questions and case studies, this book is the perfect introduction for therapy students, professional therapists topping up their skills or anyone wanting to learn more about the history and practice of Indian head massage. The authors are practising therapists and experienced tutors and teach a range of complementary therapy courses in the UK and abroad. They trained in Indian head massage with the late Narendra Mehta (MBE) who introduced Indian head massage as a complementary therapy to the UK in 1981. “This book really reflects what I knew already: that Mary & Lesley’s dedication to treating and training others would shine through every page.”(Narendra Mehta MBE)

Biografía del autor:

Mary Dalgleish has worked as a complementary health therapist since 1999 and Lesley Hart since 1990. After experiencing the power of complementary therapies in improving her own health and wellbeing, Mary studied Aromatherapy at the Tisserand Institute in London (where she later worked as a tutor and student mentor). After that first course, her interest in holistic healing was aroused and she went on to study a range of disciplines including Reflexology, Ear Candling, Ayurvedic Foot Massage, Natural Face Lift Massage and Indian Champissage (traditional head massage) with the late Narendra Mehta at the London Centre of Indian Champissage. She worked with Narendra Mehta for many years and still continues to teach courses on behalf of the London Centre of Indian Champissage. Mary is a qualified and experienced teacher with a Master's Degree in Education. She was an "Excellence in Education" award winner in the FHT's 2012 awards. Mary now uses her teaching skills in the field of complementary therapies - teaching Anatomy & Physiology, Indian Head Massage, Facial Rejuvenation (Natural Face Lift Massage), Natural Facials, Ayurvedic Foot Massage and Ear Candling courses in the UK, Ireland and often further afield. She also runs a private complementary therapy practice near Wimbledon in South West London. Mary has co-written two books with her friend and colleague, Lesley Hart who is also an experienced complementary therapist and teacher. Their book "Ear Candling in Essence" previously published by Hodder Arnold, has now been completely revised and updated as "Ear Candling - The Essential Guide". Mary and Lesley are passionate about their work and through their therapy and teaching work, they love to see others bloom and flourish. They say: "Our ethos is to offer excellent training to small groups in relaxed friendly environments. Our aim is for our students to gain professional qualifications in the field of complementary therapies and achieve the confidence and expertise necessary to work effectively with clients. We delight in teaching students around the world to discover the healing power of hands-on therapies and the benefits they bring. Many of our qualified therapists offer their skills in spas, holistic health clinics, beauty salons, hospices, hospitals, and on-site in offices."
