Therapeutic Massage
Massage is the treatment and
practice of manipulation of the soft body tissues with physical,
functional, i.e. mechanical, medical/therapeutic, and in some cases
psychological purposes and goals.[1]
The word comes from the
French massage "friction of kneading," possibly from
Arabic massa "to touch, feel, handle" or from
Latin
massa "mass, dough".
[2][3]
(In distinction the ancient
Greek word for massage itself was anatripsis
[4], and the Latin was
frictio.) An older etymology may even have been the Hebrew me-sakj
"to anoint with oil."
