Anti-Stress Head Massage

What makes this massage special, according to Diana

Diana Tavares, CitySpa Therapist, often works with clients who arrive experiencing mental fatigue, accumulated tension and difficulty slowing down. In her view, the Anti-Stress Head Massage stands out as a short but highly focused treatment inspired by Indian head massage and enriched by the sensory quality of coconut oil.

Recommended for anyone who…

• Feels mentally tired, overwhelmed or unable to switch off.
• Is looking for a quick pause that still provides a deep feeling of relaxation.
• Accumulates tension in the head, scalp, neck or upper shoulders.
• Has limited time and wants a comfortable, enveloping and targeted treatment.

Diana Tavares’s perspective

“For me, this massage has a very special value because it works on an area where many people accumulate tension without realising it. The head, scalp, neck and even the shoulders reflect the pace of the day, an excess of stimulation and the difficulty of stopping.

Before beginning, I like to understand how the person feels. Some clients say that their head feels heavy, others arrive with mental fatigue, while some simply want a few minutes of silence. Listening to them helps me adapt the pace, pressure and way I guide the touch.

The inspiration drawn from Indian head massage brings very distinctive movements with a firm but comfortable presence. Coconut oil adds a highly enjoyable sensory dimension because it envelops the scalp and makes the experience feel more nourishing and comforting.

I like to work progressively and without rushing even though this is a short treatment. The intention is not merely to massage the head, but to create a genuine pause in which the person feels able to release control, close their eyes and slow down.

What makes this massage special is the way we can create a feeling of rest, lightness and greater tranquillity within a short time. It is a simple but much-needed pause for anyone who arrives at the spa with a full mind.”
