Tradition & Culture
The Story of Champi
A 4,000-year-old practice born from Ayurveda, adapted for modern Belfast clients seeking relief from stress, migraines, and screen fatigue.
Guiding Principles
Ayurvedic Balance
Champi massage was designed to calm Vata dosha: cooling the mind, easing anxiety, and promoting deep sleep through steady, rhythmic touch.
Family Lineage
Techniques were historically passed down through families in Northern India. Fast, circular motions stimulated scalp circulation while oils nourished hair.
Modern Adaptation
In the 1970s, therapist Narendra Mehta introduced Champissage to the UK, adapting seated routines for Western wellness spaces while preserving Ayurvedic theory.
The Ritual in Belfast
Karolina blends Champi lineage with contemporary bodywork so each client feels grounded, not groggy. Expect:
- • Grounding breath work and neck stretches
- • Slow palm-pressure down the shoulders to release trapped tension
- • Champi-inspired circular scalp work with nourishing oils
- • Temporal pressure points to soften jaw clenching
- • Finishing strokes that sweep stagnant energy away from the crown
Who Benefits Most?
Indian Head Massage is particularly effective for:
• Office teams experiencing tech-neck and eye strain

• Men looking for a grounded, structured relaxation ritual
• Clients who struggle to switch off after work
You can add Indian Head Massage to any package or book it solo.
