INDIAN CHAMPISSAGE™ TRAINING COURSE

“Champi” is an Indian word meaning “massage of the head”

Indian Champissage™ is a safe, simple and highly beneficial therapy that has been popular on the Indiansubcontinent for over a thousand years.  The head, neck, shoulders and upper back—areas where tension is more likely to accumulate—are gently, firmly  and rhythmically massaged until the pressure simply begins to melt away.

This unique therapy combines physical and subtle massage with energy balancing to produce feelings of perfect peace and tranquility.  There is no need to undress and no oils are used.  Indian Champissage™ is a wonderful alternative to traditional seated chair massage.

Indian Champissage™ may provide relief from aches and pains, numerous stress-related symptoms and insomnia.  It soothes, comforts and rebalances your energy flow.  It gives a deep sense of peace and calm.

The aim of the basic course is to provide a comprehensive grounding in the theoretical basis and practical application of Indian Champissage™. Students will be able to use the technique as a principal or subsidiary part of their professional practice.

The basic course is structured over three days.
