Swedish
massage is now known as “traditional”
massage. In the 1820s a Swedish doctor, Dr. Per Henrik Ling, developed the
first modern method of massage through his study of physiology, gymnastics,
and the massage techniques borrowed China, Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Swedish
massage includes long gliding strokes, kneading, friction, tapping, and
shaking motions. It is effective for most ailments, because massaging the
skin, the body’s largest organ, sets up a chain reaction that produces a
positive effect on all layers and systems of the body. It affects the
nerves, muscles, glands, and circulation, and promotes health and
well-being, Rated Medium . |
