Massage is a form of muscle and tissue manipulation leading to benefits for all the body systems.
Massage has developed over thousands of years. From ancient China to present-day Europe massage has been used for the promotion and restoration of health.
Modern Massage is based on techniques developed by Per Henrik Ling (1776-1839) a physiologist from Sweden and massage is still referred to as Swedish massage due to his influence.
Massage is a combination of movements using the application of pressure to either relax or invigorate. Massage oil is used to help the massage therapist's hands move freely and smoothly over the client's skin.
