About Massage
Massage
is considered to be one of
the oldest of all treatments of the
human body. Old Chinese records
dating back as far as three milleniums
document its use. The ancient Hindus,
Persians, and Egyptians used forms of
massage
for many ailments. Hippocrates
wrote articles recommending the use of
massage for joint and circulatory
problems. The Greeks and Romans
perfected the art of spa treatments
throughout history...
Today massage therapy is an important
part of physical rehabilitation
beneficial for treatment of many
chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia,
back pain, arthritis, whiplash, bursitis,
etc. It is proven to reduce tension,
improve circulation, eliminate soreness
and provide an overall feeling of well
being and relaxation. Contributions of
massage therapy to preventive health
care are indisputable. At Club Orient
we practice a relaxing combination of
Swedish and Shiatsu massage.
