Massage therapy's history dates to 3000 BCE (earlier) to 3000 CE (or even later) in India and was once believed to be an ancient medical method of healing pure. Massage therapy was first utilized by Ayurveda practitioners, specifically Hindus. It was passed through generations to treat injuries, ease pain and even to prevent illnesses. One of the first and perhaps the most well-known uses of massage is in the field of sports massage, which utilizes strokes of massage as a means of helping muscles to recover or perform at peak performance levels. The practice isn't just limited to physical therapy or sports. Massage is also used to decrease stress and swelling that is caused by a myriad of daily activities.
