There is no question that properly done physical therapy has vast benefits.Actually, physical therapy has been around since Ancient Greece.Wikipedia says “Physicians like Hippocrates and later Galenus are believed to have been the first practitioners of physical therapy, advocating massage, manual therapy techniques and hydrotherapy to treat people in 460 B.C.” Physical therapy is used to bring relief from many conditions ranging from stiff muscles to back pain, arthritis, sports injuries, and even stroke and Parkinson’s disease. In fact, one may consider that many manual treatments, such as massage, spine adjustments, acupuncture and Pilates, are branches of the all-inclusive physical therapy, which simply means: therapy accomplished through physical means. One of the definitions of physical is “of or relating to the body as distinguished from the mind or spirit” (American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, 4th Edition). On the other hand, we all know that a healthy body does wonders for the mind and the spirit.

However, properly administered therapeutic massage is very valuable in achieving outcomes for patients with musculoskeletal conditions
