Excerpt from Massage, Manual Treatment Remedial Movements: History, Mode of Application, and Effects; Indications and Contra-Indications The early use of massage in fractures, its surprising effects upon the opsonic index, and its possible and probable relation to the theory Of'the neurons, all add lustre to the fame of our subject and ought to stimulate investigators to further research. While pictures give some idea of the corrector incorrect positions of the hands in doing massage, pressure and move ment and many other details can be learned only from an experienced teacher. What was said about this in the preface to the first edition may be repeated here: It is hoped that the principles of massage are so clearly set forth in the following pages that they may be easily understood and made available by anyone who has sufficient knowledge of anatomy and physi ology and acquaintance with the natural and morbid con sistency of tissues. With this knowledge pictures are. Um necessary; without it they are useless. Illustrations of correct methods of applying the hands for massage in this work have been taken from photographs of the same on the living subject, for which I am indebted to my daughter. Of late the manner Of making books On massage has too often been to make a wholesale acknowledgment Of indebted ness in the preface to various authors, and after that to take all that is wanted from them without either reference, name, or quotation - marks. It is not the way that this book has been made. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
