MASSAGE

Massage (in French "massage" in Greek. "Massey" - "crush, rub," Arab. "Mass" - "to touch, gently wipe" in Hebrew. "Masses" - "to touch, touch") - has long been known method of treatment, While this is true and clear understanding of the effect of the massage was not even then.

Massage - is a specific, scientifically based, in dose of mechanical and reflex effects of the human organism as a whole. Massage is performed in physical contact by hand, special tools or machines in order to restore health to maintain and strengthen the body.

Massage hand movements known as the massage action.
Massage service - masseur accordance with their professional qualifications and the professional competencies for massage.

Massage knew almost all the nations and tribes, so I can not disagree with Sarkirovo-Serazinio view that the emergence of massage techniques and their influence on the development of the whole nation had.

Even in days of yore doctors began to recognize massage therapy as a tool. This method has been known in China, Japan, Greece, massage and the benefits mentioned by Hippocrates (460-377 p.Kr.). Along with massage then have to apply and therapeutic procedures is similar to acupuncture.

It must be said that in later times, was very popular (among both ordinary people and the nobility), a kind of folk doctors - that midwives, narininkai (bone įtvėrėjai) priests. Knowing a variety of methods to re-broke or broken bones, they are cured as well as diarrhea, pain in the lumbar area of ​​the uterus to help women in irregular situations, etc.

Massage the development history of Europe has played a Swedish doctor, P. Lingo (1776 - 1839) works in which massage was combined with gymnastics, P. Ling also codified the massage techniques. Russian nineteenth-century perform physiological research to determine how massage is healthy and diseased human body. Concluded that the various cases where massage is different, so the possible impact of this testimony and priešparodymai was awarded the massage action classification, and create a therapeutic massage techniques.

A huge impact on the promotion of the massage I had a Russian doctor Sabludovskij in Berlin, founded the first school in the State masseurs (1882). His scientific work on the application of massage in surgery, therapy and sports still important to the present day. About the physiological effects of massage techniques and its application I. Zabludovskij wrote more than 100 scientific papers. He has developed several new massage techniques and have made a significant contribution to the development of sports massage.

Thus began a consistent massage treatments the mechanism study of the methodology and technical training, readings and priešparodymų analysis.

In particular, often started to massage the Second World War, during which time it was necessary to restore hundreds of thousands of hospitals and the health of injured clients.

Massage can be classified in many ways. Under the scope of massage are divided into general and partial.

The general massage - a massage is when a certain order and in a certain sequence of massaging the whole body.

Partial massage is designed to separate parts of the body, for example, back, arms, legs and other parts of the body massage.

According to the objective of the massage can be divided into therapeutic, sports, hygienic, cosmetic. Each of these types of massage has its own peculiarities.

Massage using special techniques, which are subject to various diseases.

Today in our lives (especially in recent decades), massage is becoming increasingly popular (hygienic, cosmetic, sports, etc.), even though all the major recognized therapeutic massage, which is quite often the treatment of various diseases in Estonia is probably the only tool.

Therapeutic massage is used in the treatment of patients with cardiovascular, nervous system diseases in the respiratory, musculoskeletal, digestive or reproductive failure, but also - metabolic disorder cases.

It is regrettable that so-called western world take over a massage only as a preventive, relaxing, or a total of ... facility. Such an approach society itself loses more than they receive.
