Massage

Description

As a therapeutic method, massage has been used since ancient times, both to treat physical disorders (injuries of the motor and support apparatus; disturbances of the metabolism; diseases of the nervous, circulatory and respiratory systems); and to promote general physical, emotional and mental wellbeing, by maintaining athletic form, combating fatigue and restoring physical strength.
