The History of Massage
Chinese massage methods originated
from the principle that diseases or illnesses arise due to a deficiency or
imbalance in the energy in specific pathways or meridians that represent
physiological systems. Through massage and other specific bodywork techniques,
energy will flow more harmoniously through these pathways, allowing the body to
heal itself naturally.
Massage practitioners stimulate
pressure points in the body in an effort to rebalance the patient’s energy.
They use their thumbs, fingers and palms, working without needles or other
instruments. Through treatment, patients can achieve balance in both their
physical body and emotional well-being.
Today’s massage therapists practice a multitude of techniques originating from ancient methods. From those roots, they remain inspired by a goal cultivated centuries ago – to help others heal their physical and emotional well-being and experience well-being and a higher quality of life.
