Great course easy to follow. I felt a better understanding of the acupressure points as I'm a practicing Acupressurist, someone without that knowledge might now get some of it but give it a go anyway. I cant wait to start offering Indian head massages to my clients.

Yes, I am a Reflexologist so this amazing! That's me completed the course for Complete Indian Head Massage! Very easy to follow and lots of great tips to be better than average! Thank you Mark I look forward to completing more of your courses in the future.

This is an interesting and informative course taught by a tutor that is obviously very experienced in Indian head massage and other holistic treatments. He presents the information in a detailed and easy going manner that is easy to understand and is not overwhelming.
By Renate Lalsingh on 9/22/2023
This was a great course and learning experience. Mark's teaching style is very detailed and offers extra tips for one's overall success. The course is broken down into well designed segments, keeping you tuned in without feeling overwhelmed with information. As well, Mark's high energy, yet easy going, relaxed approach keeps you engaged through out.

Thank you so much for this wonderful opportunity, I enjoyed the course so much. You have a great way of explaining the techniques and I love that you focus on how it feels rather than a strict routine and just going through the motions. I found myself nodding in agreement with the points you make and I think this is what makes your courses special. You make it so easy to learn with your friendly and fun approach. I am already signed up to 3 more of your course and I am sure I will continue to take more after I complete those. I am returning to Massage Therapy after raising my children and the courses you offer are so affordable thank you very much.

Mr. Mark is a terrific teacher. I have started other courses from him and have learned a tremendous amount and had fun doing it! Liam is such a terrific model! I almost fell asleep watching him get a head massage. I have taken quite a few Indian Head Massage courses over the past few years and I have to say this is the easiest and quick to learn course out there. Great for those getting started! Thanks Mr. Mark for a terrific course. Looking forward to completing more from you!

I have studies IHM with two other people.....doesn't compare to this course with Mark.....so much more info. The other courses did not include Acupressure points nor did it include oils. I only took this course because I have enjoyed previous courses by Mark and it was discounted....so grateful I signed up for it.......took IHM to another level....Thank you Mark
By Susan Mills on 5/5/2023
Another great course from Mark Perren-Jones. I have completed an ‘in person’ Indian Head Massage elsewhere but love Mark’s top tips. So pleased I did this course too as there were additional techniques included. Thank you
By Karolyn L Porter on 4/18/2023
It felt a bit haphazard and little all over the place. It would be more appropriate to have an outline per step to understand what each technique addresses and the benefits of an Indian Head Massage. His model's hair was so full it would have been better to have someone with thinner hair to see Mark's finger techniques. Also, I felt the course wasn't prepared thoroughly, it felt like Mark decided to sit down and just run through the techniques of an Indian Head Massage. However, I was able to take away the process and will repeatedly watch the videos of the different head massage techniques.
By Michelle Wisted on 3/21/2023
Yes! I am a Reiki Practitioner, so this will be a great fit for my business! Mark Was so informative and not a boring course ! I loved how he shared all his little tips. I have taken another course from him before and it was excellent as well! Thank you Michelle Wisted
