clear, concise, easy to use book for any level
This book is well laid out and covers all aspects of indian head massage, including business management and client care. For the student and tutor alike, clear, concise diagrams which relate to the anatomy and physiology aspect of the subject will be a great help. The budding amateur looking to expand into the business world who may need help distinguishing contra-indications, would also find this book most helpful.

All in all, a good book to learn from and a most useful reference.
