3.0 out of 5 stars So-So, good for background, not so good on technique, October 29, 2005

This review is from: Teach Yourself Indian Head Massage (Paperback)

As a Registered Massage Therapist I thought this book would have more technique on how to incorporate Indian Head Massage into my sessions. It gave a fairly good history lesson, but no real useful information on specific strokes. A dissapointment from a book titled "Teach Yourself..." I keep it in my studio as reading material for my clients, however I do not refer to it very often. If you want to learn this type of massage, go to a class, do not rely on a book.
