History of Massage Therapy
Massage therapy may be the oldest and simplest form of medical care dating back as far as 3,000 B.C. The oldest form, which is still practiced today, is part of the Indian system of medicine, Ayurveda. A Chinese book from 2,700 B.C., The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine, recommends “breathing exercises, massage of skin and flesh, and exercises of hands and feet” as the appropriate treatment for complete paralysis, chills, and fever. It was one of the principal methods of relieving pain for Greek and Roman physicians.  Hippocrates, the father of Western medicine of 5th century B.C. was quoted as writing "The physician must be experienced in many things, but assuredly in rubbing. For rubbing can bind a joint that is too loose, and loosen a joint that is too rigid." Massage Therapy continues to be used as a means for pain management, tension reduction, and stress relief.
