Japanese head spa
Eligibility
Certain conditions mean a head spa treatment can't proceed, while others call for extra care and guidance. Please make sure you understand which applies to you before booking.
Do not book
Pregnancy
Japanese head spa uses various massage techniques and pressure points on your head, neck, face and back, some of which may be contra indicated during pregnancy. We also use products containing essential oils which are not suitable during pregnancy.
Do not book
Hair Extensions
Unfortunately we can not perform any of our treatments if you have extensions as we may damage them and we are unable to perform the massage effectively.
Book with caution
Allergies
If you have a food, chemical, nut, tree, or any other allergy, please disclose this in detail on your pre-consultation form when asked. This allows us to select products together with you that won't trigger a reaction.
Book with caution
Cancer, chemo and radiation
Our therapists are trained in Japanese head spa, not oncology massage. If you have active cancer, we need written approval from your doctor confirming head spa is safe for your specific circumstance. Please share the full head spa treatment details with them so they can assess it properly. If you're currently in chemo or radiation, we can't perform head spa until 2 months after the course is complete. The skin and body are extra sensitive at this time and our products, pressure-point and massage techniques may carry risks during that window.
Do not book
Contagious diseases or viruses
For the safety of our Therapists and other guests, please do not attend an appointment if you have flu, covid or other contagious illnesses. Please reschedule with 48 hours notice to avoid fees.
Book with caution
Injuries, post surgery and vertigo
Head spa treatments require you to lie down in a fully reclined position for 30–150 minutes depending on the treatment. If an injury or surgery has taken place in the last 3 months or if you suffer from vertigo, please consult your doctor and provide written approval that clearly states head spa is safe in your circumstance. Please share the full head spa treatment details with them so they can assess suitability, including whether the required fully reclined position is appropriate for you.
OK to book
Baldness or Alopecia
Head spa is still suitable for most clients with baldness or alopecia — our therapists can adjust pressure and technique to suit your scalp. Please let us know the type and extent on your pre-consultation form so we can tailor the treatment and avoid any areas that need extra care.
OK to book
Non contagious dandruff, psoriosis and dermatitis
These conditions don't prevent a head spa treatment, but please disclose them on your pre-consultation form so we can select suitable products and adjust technique to avoid irritating affected areas.
