What is ASMR?
ASMR, or Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, is a gentle, calming sensation some people experience when exposed to certain visual, auditory, or tactile “triggers”. It often feels deeply relaxing and can help your nervous system settle.
Did you know that touch is one of the strongest reported ASMR triggers?

Our sessions will feel familiar to anyone who’s received massage before. You’ll be on a massage table with proper draping for comfort and privacy. The difference is in our signature ZenHeads approach. Rather than focusing on muscle pressure or deep tissue work, our licensed massage therapists use gentle tools and light fingertip touch to calm the nervous system and create a deeply relaxing, sensory experience.
A portion of all of our sessions are oil-free and focus on soothing sensation instead of muscle manipulation. If you’re looking for more traditional bodywork, make sure to choose one of our services that includes a Swedish massage blend for deeper, gliding techniques.
-
Yes! Once you’re in the studio, we can tweak, swap, or add whatever your body’s asking for that day.
-
Each tool feels different. Some are scratchy, some soft, some tingly. They’re meant to enhance relaxation and induce tactile ASMR. You’re always in control and can opt out of anything.
-
Yes! ZenHeads Signature Massages are suitable for all hair types. We have a variety of tools and techniques that are comfortable for tight coils, textured hair, protective styles, thinning hair, or even no hair at all. Curl-safe tools are marked in our online tool library, and we’re happy to guide you through the selection process in the studio before your appointment.
-
If your session includes scalp work or hair brushing, freshly washed, dried, and detangled hair (especially for straight hair) can enhance the experience by allowing us to spend less time working through knots and more time focusing on relaxation. That said, there’s absolutely no need to plan a wash day around your appointment. Our goal is for you to feel relaxed and enjoy your time with us, just as you are.
Because wet hair is more delicate, we do ask that you arrive with dry hair for your appointment.
Complimentary brushes and detangler are available in the studio for you to use before or after your session.
-
Yes. ZenHeads Relaxation sessions can be adjusted for sensitive scalps, including dandruff, eczema, and psoriasis. Please let us know about any concerns before your session and we can choose the most comfortable tools and techniques for your unique needs.

How WE Use ASMR at ZenHeads
While our ASMR channels focus on visual and auditory triggers, our studio offers a tactile ASMR experience. Using gentle touch like hair brushing, light scratching, and slow, featherlight massage, our licensed massage therapists create a deep sense of safety and relaxation your nervous system loves.
These familiar, comforting sensations often echo nurturing moments from childhood, helping the nervous system soften and settle. We blend these techniques with flowing Swedish massage, allowing the body to fully unwind. Many clients fall asleep during their sessions and describe the experience as even more relaxing than a traditional massage.
