At the beginning of the 19th century, the Swede Per Henrik Ling developed what is known today as Swedish massage. A combination of gymnastics, physiology techniques from the Chinese, the Egyptians, the Greeks and the Romans. On the spiritual level massage it not only relieves stress and anxiety, but also helps to become more aware of the body as a whole. It promotes relaxation, reassurance and can initiate a healing process by conveying a sense of one’s own well-being.
