This book has been written from years of experience in working with and teaching massage and seeks to provide 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, two things have happened; firstly the power of massage has been largely forgotten, and secondly, with the increase of a litigious culture, it has been politicised and people have become scared to touch for fear of litigation. It seeks to both educate and empower two groups of people; the qualified massage practitioner wanting a ready reference book for unfamiliar conditions, and everyday people wanting to help a friend or family member who is dealing with a health problem. While in many cases individuals will feel happier going to see a qualified practitioner, there may be times when for reasons of finance, life circumstances, or simply client choice, this is not possible, and it is perfectly fine to use massage in the home.
