Book excerpt: Excerpt from Massage as a Mode of Treatment Sous months ago at the Westminster Hospital I delivered a lecture, which was subsequently pub lished in the Lancet, on the treatment or infantile paralysis, in the course of which'i referred at some length to the value of Massage as a therapeutic agent. The subject attracted a good deal of atten tion, and I received a number of letters from medical men in various parts of the country asking for further information, many of my correspondents urging me to publish full details of the methods employed. I have much pleasure in acceding to their request, and [do so the more willingly becausei have recently returned from Germany, where thanks to the kind ness and courtesy of my friend Professor Von Mosengeil, I have had the opportunity of witnessing.

Book excerpt: Massage Therapy: Integrating Research and Practice presents the latest research examining the evidence for the use of various massage therapy techniques in treating pathological conditions and special populations. In this resource readers will find a synthesis of information from the diverse fields of kinesiology, medicine, nursing, physical therapy, and psychology. Authored by experts carefully selected for their specific knowledge, experience, and research acumen, Massage Therapy: Integrating Research and Practice will assist both students and practitioners in these areas: • Learning the benefits of evidence-based massage therapy practice • Understanding various research methods • Developing research skills by learning guidelines for writing case reports and journal articles • Understanding how to integrate massage therapy research into education and clinical practice This text presents a seamless integration of research and practice in four parts, providing readers first with a background to the field of massage therapy followed by discussion of research methods. Next is an evidence-based presentation of the efficacy of massage therapy for conditions and populations often encountered in massage therapy practice. This clinicial section presents three patient populations (pediatric, athletic, and elderly); three pain-related types (headache, neck and shoulder pain, and low back pain); and six conditions that massage therapists may encounter: pregnancy and labor, scar treatment, cancer, fibromyalgia, anxiety and depression, and clients who have experienced sexual trauma. Recommendations and evidence-based treatment guidelines are clearly defined for each condition. Case reports developed from real-life cases are included in this section, offering readers a real-world context for the clinical content presented. The final section illustrates specific ways to integrate research into the educational and professional development of current and future massage therapists. It provides readers with the fundamental tools for a research-based approach in clinical practice, especially as it relates to special populations. A running glossary, chapter summaries, and critical thinking questions assist students in learning the content and act as self-study tools for practitioners. Massage Therapy: Integrating Research and Practice offers both students and practitioners of massage therapy the most current evidence-based information, guidelines, and recommendations for the treatment of conditions often seen in massage therapy practice. This essential reference will assist practitioners in understanding the scientific literature and its application in enhancing the practice of this safe and effective health intervention.

It would appear also to act as a direct stimulant to the intestine, for within a few minutes of the commencement of the manipulation, peristaltic movements are excited which may in time reach such a grade as to cause much colicky pain. It is possible that such effect may be brought about by the immediate stimulation of Auerbach's plexus, under the control of which the peristaltic rhythm is supposed to lie. The stimulation also of the skin of the abdominal parietes may not be without influence. It is supplied by branches from the last seven of the dorsal nerves, and it is signi K ficant that it is from these very nerves that the splanchnics are in great part derived. The part played by the splanchnics in the abdominal nervous system need not be commented upon. Their precise influence upon the bowel has yet to be established, but so far as movement is concerned they appear to contain both excitor and inhibitory fibres. These explanations of the effects of Massage are not entirely satisfactory, nor are they such as would satisfy the captious doubter. The doubter, however, can wait, and in the meantime the practical man may be satisfied that he has in Massage a therapeutic measure of considerable value." Dr. Cheadle has recorded three cases of intussusception treated by inflation and Massage. Dr. George Harley, in the Illustrated Medical News of Oct. 20, 1888, advocates the use of digital manipulation for the extrusion of calculi, biliary sand and gravel from the gall-bladder and bile ducts. When there is an obstruction to the flow of bile, due to the presence of a concretion, the gall bladder is always more or less distended with fluid, and is easily felt through the abdominal...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Treatment by Massage written by Douglas Graham and published by Editions Le Mono. This book was released on 2016-03-20 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Massage” from the Greek masso (I knead or handle), is a term now generally accepted to signify a group of procedures which are usually done with the hands, such as friction, kneading, manipulating, rolling, and percussing of the external tissues of the body, either with some curative, palliative, or hygienic object in view. Its application should in many instances be combined with passive, resistive, or assistive movements, and these are often spoken of as the so-called Swedish movement-cure. There is, however, an increasing tendency on the part of scientific men to have the word "massage" embrace all these varied forms of manual therapeutics, for the reason that the word "cure," attached to any form of treatment whatsoever, cannot always be applicable, inasmuch as there are many maladies that preclude the possibility of recovery and yet admit of amelioration. Hence the word "cure" may lead people to expect too much; and, on the other hand, the use of the word "rubbing" in place of "massage" tends to undervalue the application and benefit of the latter, for it is but natural to suppose that all kinds of rubbing are alike, differing only in the amount of force used.
