Massage: Its Principles and Technique is a comprehensive guide to the art and science of massage therapy, written by Max Bohm and originally published in 1913. The book covers the history of massage, the principles of anatomy and physiology that underlie massage techniques, and a detailed description of various massage techniques and their applications. Bohm begins by tracing the history of massage from its origins in ancient times to its development as a therapeutic practice in modern medicine. He then explores the basic principles of anatomy and physiology that are essential for understanding how massage works, including the structure and function of muscles, bones, and organs. The bulk of the book is devoted to a detailed description of various massage techniques, including Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, and reflexology. For each technique, Bohm provides step-by-step instructions, accompanied by illustrations, for performing the massage and achieving the desired therapeutic effects. In addition to the practical aspects of massage therapy, Bohm also discusses the psychological and emotional benefits of massage, such as reducing stress and promoting relaxation. He also addresses the ethical considerations that are involved in providing massage therapy, such as respecting the privacy and dignity of the client. Overall, Massage: Its Principles and Technique is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning about the history, principles, and techniques of massage therapy. It provides a comprehensive overview of the field, and its practical guidance and insights into the therapeutic benefits of massage make it an essential reference for both students and practitioners of massage therapy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
