The
most widely known and
utilised system of massage
therapy is the Swedish
relaxation system, developed
in the 1700s by a Swedish
doctor named Per Henrik
Ling. Massage therapy
works to improve a person's
health and well being
through the hands on manipulation
of soft tissues and muscles
of the body.

and offers nurturing touch
