Don't know about a head massage but ordinary massage can make muscles sore if you have myofascial pain syndrome as it will release the inflammatory substances that are trapped in the muscle fascia and trigger points, the hard knots of fibres you sometimes feel in large muscles. You can feel as if you have a bit of a flare for a while. I don't mind it as it doesn't last long and I feel so much better afterwards.

Your masseuse might not be very good. My hairdresser’s assistant gives an incredible head massage but she is very gentle. I never want it to stop.

Head massage can relieve a person from many problems: headaches, dry dandruff, hair loss, sebaceous glands disorders. Massage can also help you relax and unwind, which is very important for a person whose life consists of stress. This practice has been used throughout the history of many ancient and modern cultures. The level of pleasure can be compared to a nude massage London aishamassage.com. The most obvious benefit of scalp massage is the immediate increase in blood flow and circulation in this area, which feeds the hair follicles.
