What is this eBook about?
We’re proud to have produced this unique book, which is surely the most complete traditional massage treatments reference guide in the world, covering more than 150 distinct massage modalities.
We start this book with an introduction to some general aspects around traditional massages. This is followed by a section that discusses the massage history and developments of/within various significant geographical regions.
We then continue with giving you the general characteristics of traditional massage types. After this section, we embark on the largest part of the book, which describes individual massage treatment modalities, per country or per larger region.
You can read more about the structure and background of this book in our post Traditional Massage Encyclopedia | Reader’s Guide.
