Modern massage is based on techniques developed by Per Henrik Ling (1776 – 1839), a physiologist and fencing master. He was from Sweden and massage is still referred to as Swedish Massage because of his influence. Many systems and methods exist, but Swedish Massage remains the basis for most massage practices.
