Practical information on using massage to treat a range of medical conditions. Massage has been used for thousands of years to treat a whole array of conditions and was traditionally passed down through families as part of everyday life. With the increase in modern medicine the power of massage has been largely forgotten, and people have become scared to touch for fear of litigation. This book seeks to educate and empower both the qualified massage practitioner wanting a ready reference book for unfamiliar conditions, and every day people wanting to help a friend or family member dealing with a health problem.
