What Is Medical Massage?
Medical Massage is not a specific technique but a therapy prescribed by a physician as an additional or main treatment for several conditions. Despite this, insurance still does not cover Massage Therapy in most states, including North Carolina. Medical massage therapists must have a strong background in pathology, disease, and injury to be able to utilize specific massage techniques related to various medical conditions. Medical massage involves manipulation of soft tissues like skin, muscles and connective tissues.
In the 19th century professor Silas Weir Mitchell, a neurologist in Philadelphia, PA, was the first to bring massage to the attention of the US Medical Community. In the end of 20th The American Medical Massage Association has helped medical massage to grow in popularity as a medical procedure.
