MASSAGE MADE EASY

One of the most complete massage books available, Massage Made Easy introduces the basic massage strokes and techniques and then provides 24 specific massage routines. Each routine is directed toward a particular problem: easing tension and stress in different parts of the body; relieving backache and tension headaches; improving well-being during pregnancy; soothing babies and young children; relieving sports injuries and joint pain; and more. More than 400 specially commissioned color photographs and step-by-step instructions provide guidance through each routine. Also included are tips on self-massage, reflexology and acupressure points, and what massage oils to use. The book is aimed at beginners, but professionals and massage enthusiasts alike will find it a handy reference guide.
