Scalp Massage Technique:
My name is Fernando Soutullo I am a Florida License Physical Therapist and I would like to
update everybody that is interested in the field about different Massage and Mobilization Techniques.
In this article I will talk about Scalp Massage and how you can benefit by applying it during your
work.
Scalp Massage:
Scalp Massage is a very special kind of massage that not too many people talk about. This kind of technique
is a very good one used to unlock the scalp tissue from the skull; this procedure produces an increase of scalp blood flow and circulation and
therefore hair follicle irrigation.
This is a very good technique to prevent hair loss and to stimulate hair grow; to produce and
effect like this it is very important to be constant because the procedure is very slow it could take month for the subject to see results but at
the same time is very effective and natural.
the scalp tissue and then it is the time to start working on the massage, some therapist use infrared or
other means to produce the same results. It is also advisable to apply some lotions with vitamins while giving the massage to the scalp.
If you would like to learn more about this technique here are some useful tips for that
The technique usually uses circular friction movements with fingers applying pressure in the scalp while
working from lateral and temporal areas close to the ears ,to medial area or upper part of the head.
It is important to follow a slow rhythm and never pulling the hair or dragging it with the fingers that could
make the hair to be pull out from the scalp, instead it is advisable to press it gentle to the scalp while performing the circular friction
movements.
There is an additional technique called Cup massage in which the subject have tomake a cup with
the hand then place the hand over the head while making contraction movements with the hand and moving the scalp tissue with it.
It is also a very good technique used to relax the person because it activates acupuncture points located in
the head, in this case the technique is called acupressure due to the use of fingers instead of needles so besides of having the benefits to
improve the hair condition you have an extra benefit when producing patient's relaxation.
Remember:
First, do no harm!

Testimony from Massage Student:
I want to thank you for putting together this comprehensive and knowledgeable video set for educating therapist about how to give a proper massage! This will go a long way in my education. It's just like having a personal instructor on hand, to learn all about giving a massage. Thank you so much for this video series!

Hello!
Thank you for your informative video! I love it.
I was finally able to download after the movie open, and I click on Save As, and it will start to download. You can give that hint to others, if they can't figure out what to do, once the movie starts, just let it play and click FILE (SAVE AS), and then save to computer. It takes a long time to download. You might wish to consider zipping the file and then they can download a bundle at a time. Total minute for me was around 1 hr. to download everything on cable DSL speed.
Cheers,
Elizabeth
