Combing therapy is an ancient Chinese self-care technique that uses a wide-toothed comb to gently stimulate the scalp. This simple method boosts blood circulation, helping nourish hair follicles and support healthy hair growth. Regular combing can also help relieve tension in the head and neck by activating key pressure points on the scalp. It’s a relaxing, natural way to care for both your hair and overall well-being.

Preparation: Before you begin, make sure your hair is detangled.

Getting Started: Start combing with gentle movements, beginning at the hairline and moving toward the back of the head. If you have long hair and it gets caught in the comb, make shorter movements to avoid pulling.

Continuing: Move to the crown of the head and comb downward on both sides, all the way to the nape of the neck.

Focus on Tension Areas: If you notice areas of tension (such as the neck), spend a bit more time massaging those areas. Use the rounded edge of the comb to gently massage the neck.

Finishing: Massage the scalp and neck for 3–5 minutes, or as long as feels comfortable.

After Use: Rinse the comb with lukewarm water after each use.
