Massage Therapy
Massage, despite it’s new age reputation, is not new. It has been practiced throughout human history, and even the grooming rituals of some animals have a lot in common with massage.
Why have so many cultures made massage part of their lifestyle? Because massage works. It works as a social tool: between friends, between parents and children, between lovers. It works as a medical method: despite the basic hostility of the medical community to any ‘alternative’ treatment, doctors have come to accept the benefits of massage for relaxation, for improving the circulation, and for treating certain medical conditions. It works for maximizing the performance of athletes and sportsmen, as the development of sports massage has shown. It works for the young and the old, in professional and personal settings. Some of the topics covered in this book are;
The advantages of massage

Massage for special groups of people
Social, Political, etc
