In a world where trends bend reality, and wellness meets wishful thinking, a new form of alternative therapy is rising—literally.
It’s called scalp grounding, and its towering ambassador is none other than Sonja Johnson, the 207 cm tall wellness model and corporate yoga consultant who now spends part of her career gently resting her palm on men’s heads—at their request.
“They beg for it,” Sonja says. “Some of them get emotional. Others just sigh like I’ve pressed a reset button on their skulls.”
At first glance, scalp grounding resembles a patronizing head pat. But for its believers, it’s a ritual—a height-to-height energy transfer where the taller person physically covers the crown chakra of a shorter participant using their hand.
🧠 The Alleged Benefits
According to proponents, scalp grounding offers a range of benefits, including:
✔️ Stress relief
✔️ Nervous system regulation
✔️ Enhanced blood circulation
✔️ Sense of calm, belonging, and security
But the most viral claim, particularly among desperate Reddit users?
💥 Hair regrowth—especially on bald spots.
“I’ve had guys come up with very obvious hair thinning,” Sonja recalls. “They’ll tilt their heads up and whisper, ‘Could you just… press down here? Maybe hold it for a minute?’”
🧘♂️ From Faux Pas to Full-Time Job
What makes this trend especially wild is how recently the act of patting a short man on the head—especially a bald one—was considered deeply offensive.
“I used to get told off for doing it playfully,” Sonja says. “Now it’s a service. A booked-out service.”
In fact, one forward-thinking tech startup has hired Sonja to perform crown chakra grounding on all employees during a multi-day corporate yoga retreat.
“They wanted a physical gesture of unity and calm,” she explains. “Apparently me holding their heads provided that… and more.”
🌐 Mother Mayhem Reflects
“We used to say ‘don’t condescend to me.’
Now men line up to be condescended onto—literally.”
But while critics call it pseudoscientific nonsense, there’s no denying the psychological effect.
In a world where men face burnout, distraction, and testosterone collapse, the soft, controlled touch of a taller goddess may offer something modern medicine doesn’t: humbling comfort.
Whether scalp grounding is placebo or power-play, one thing is certain:
The crown is open.
And Sonja’s hand is already there.
