Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Massage, Manual Treatment Remedial Movements: History, Mode of Application, and Effects; Indications and Contra-Indications This book is largely a record of the personal experience of the author, combined with that of the best writers and practitioners of massage, both here and abroad. It partakes of the nature of a text-book and a reference hand-book at one and the same time. The first edition was published in 1884, and, so far as the author is aware, was the first book on massage in point of time in the English language. Since then the uses of massage have increased to such an extent, and the study of its effects has drawn so largely from all other branches of the practice of medicine, that it is difficult to compass the whole subject in a single volume, as is here attempted. The history of massage is coeval with that of mankind and worthy of being preserved; its mode of application can be cultivated as an art second to none that the human hand can perform, having a harp oi more than a thousand strings on which to play; its range of usefulness is increasing all the time, and has long since extended into every special and general branch Of medicine, so that he who would keep pace with its developments must be well informed in all departments of the healing art. This book is written from the stand-point of the physician and practical masseur from that of theory and practice, of faith and works. From any other point of view it would have been as one-sided and useless as if an architect who had never learned the use of tools should try to teach carp carpentry, or as if a carpenter who had never studied architecture should try to teach drawing and planning.
