Massage Therapy: An Ancient and Effective Healing Art

Massage therapy, often referred to as bodywork or somatic therapy, involves the application of various techniques to the muscular structure and soft tissues of the body. Techniques include applying fixed or movable pressure, holding, vibration, rocking, friction, kneading, and compression, primarily using the hands. Massage therapists and soft tissue therapists may also use other parts of their body—such as forearms, elbows, and even feet—to achieve therapeutic results.

All massage techniques are designed to benefit the musculoskeletal, circulatory-lymphatic, nervous, and other systems of the body, working holistically to promote balance and well-being.

Did You Know?
Massage therapy is recognized as one of the oldest methods of healing, with references in medical texts dating back nearly 4,000 years. Hippocrates, known as the "Father of Medicine," emphasized the importance of massage in healing. In the 4th century B.C., he wrote:

"The physician must be acquainted with many things, and assuredly with rubbing."

In other words, massage was seen as an essential tool for restoring homeostasis—the body’s natural state of balance.
