What is a Japanese Head Spa?

A modern ritual for scalp health, stress relief, and inner clarity.

A Japanese Head Spa is more than a scalp treatment, it’s restorative care for your scalp, hair, and mind.

Rooted in Japan’s tradition of of mindful self-care, it blends time-honoured techniques with modern scalp science to purify, rebalance, and renew.

 

The experience is both technical and sensory, detoxifying the scalp, supporting healthy hair growth, and calming the nervous system. You’ll leave with a lighter scalp, healthier hair, and a calm, refreshed state of mind.

​Each element of the Japanese Head Spa is designed with purpose, blending traditional technique, sensory design, and modern scalp science for results you can truly feel.
 

  • Gentle steam opens the pores, softening and lifting impurities so the scalp can breathe again.

  • Targeted massage techniques stimulate blood flow and relieve tension built up from stress or poor posture.

  • Precision cleansing and hydration balance oil production, calm inflammation, and restore scalp health.

  • Nourishing serums and masks deliver nutrients that strengthen the follicles and support healthy growth.

  • Immersive sound and flow therapy, the soft rhythm of running water surrounding you during treatment, activates the body’s relaxation response, easing the mind into a meditative state that enhances sleep and overall wellbeing.

You’ll notice the difference immediately, a sense of lightness, clarity, and calm that lasts long after you leave.

What to Expect During Your Head Spa Experience

Every Head Spa begins with care and attention to detail. Your therapist will welcome you and take a moment to understand your comfort and preferences before commencing treatment.

A gentle cleanse follows, using natural formulations to lift impurities and rebalance the scalp. Warm steam softens the skin and enhances product absorption, while skilled massage techniques stimulate circulation and ease the mind into deep relaxation.

Depending on the package you choose, your experience may also include specialised elements such as scalp analysis, exfoliation, serum or mask infusion, or additional facial care for deeper nourishment and results.

The session concludes with a finishing rinse and leave-in nourishment, leaving your scalp refreshed, your hair renewed, and your whole system noticeably calmer.

Please note: steps may vary slightly depending on the package selected. Premium package include additional elements such as targeted treatments, extended massage, or aromatherapy or hot stone therapy enhancements.

“Absolute bliss”

This was the most incredible treatment experience I’ve ever had. The head spa package I bought also came with a facial and foot bath, as various other additions, which were a lovely surprise. It was such great value and 100% worthwhile! I felt absolute bliss for the luxurious 60 minute head spa I had and honestly can’t wait to come back again in the future.
