More and more people are turning to natural treatments for hair loss and common scalp problems. Hair spa can be taken at home or a specialty salon and massages are a practical and cost-effective option. To massage your scalp, simply apply warm coconut or argan oil to the roots and the scalp. Work the oil around the scalp using your fingers in circular motions. Some reasons why massage is good for your scalp are given below.
It increases blood supply to the scalp
This is probably the biggest reason why massage benefits the hair and scalp. Improved blood flow to the scalp leads to improved nutrient intake, and strengthens the follicles. Hair spa also consists of massaging the scalp gently using coconut oil or olive oil.
Do not forget to use a good anti-dandruff shampoo and conditioner at the end. However, in case of other hair problems; get a treatment customized for you. PHS Hairscience provides treatments including acupressure and hair spa.
It promotes sleep and eliminates stress
One of the primary reasons behind hair loss and dandruff is lack of proper sleep. While the latter can be dealt with by using a good anti-dandruff shampoo like the ADV Purifying Scalp Cleanser, massage can facilitate sleep. Sleep deprivation is known to cause telogen effluvium and diffuse hair loss. Massaging the hair with coconut or argan oil can promote better sleep.
However, it is better to seek hair loss treatment to avoid permanent baldness. The DSR Program by PHS Hairscience is a comprehensive hair re-growth program that uses the best of traditional and modern ingredients and techniques.
Massage with essential oils to treat alopecia areata
Massaging the scalp with coconut or olive oil is effective in hair problems like dry scalp and hair loss. However, regular tests have revealed that essential oils of thyme, rosemary and lavender can help treat alopecia areata. While rosemary has antifungal properties, cedarwood oil can be blended with thyme or lavender for improved lymph function.
Massage the scalp daily with any of these essential oils along with carrier oils of grape seed and jojoba. Let the hair soak it in overnight and wash with an anti-dandruff shampoo in the morning.
Massage can help reverse baldness
DHT is a hormone that naturally occurs in either sex and is believed to cause androgenic alopecia. As a result, the hairline recedes, also known as male/female pattern baldness. Oils like olive oil, when massaged into the scalp, can inhibit DHT, reversing baldness in the process. In the long term, this also rids the scalp of infection and reduces inflammation.
Blending acupressure and massage can treat hair fall
The practice of tapping pressure points in the body to encourage health and beat stress-related complications is not new. Acupressure combined with scalp massage can not only boost blood circulation, but remove toxins from the scalp. Pressure points that can promote hair growth are concentrated in the middle of the scalp.
Some people massage this strategic point with fingers, while others use toothpicks to poke it. However, to avoid hurting yourself, visit a salon or trichologist facility to get it done professionally. PHS Hairscience provides scalp massages using rich essential oils and traditional acupressure techniques.
