This in an excellent resource if you're interested in learning all about different types of massages. McCloud goes into detail about fifteen different types of massages. Each chapter is dedicated to a specific type of massage where the author goes into detail about the physical and emotional benefits, medical treatment uses, the origins of the massage, techniques, and necessary equipment. There is also a chapter that specifically talks about finding the right masseuse which is so important. If you ever had questions about massages or wanted to know how each type varies from one another this is the book you've been looking for!

This book helped me decide which massage I wanted to try. There are so many types and I was worried that I would be in pain after a massage. The book explains 16 different types of massages. I had no idea there were THAT many. It helped me decide to try Hot Stone Massage, which was very relaxing, and Thai Massage that worked very well for me. I am very sensitive and I was pretty sure Swedish, Deep Tissue and Trigger Point massage would be too intense for me. I was very happy with my decision. The book goes into detail about each type of massage. It explains the benefits, the history and origins, how the massage works, different techniques within the massage, the equipment needed to do the massage, what conditions would negate you getting that type of massage (contraindications). It also goes into how to choose a therapist. I found the book very interesting and it made me actually think about going to school for massage therapy.

the book has bigger font than a first grade school book stretched to 130 pages. not worth it.

A great summary of the major massage methods! This helped me sort through the different massage modalities out there and determine which forms of massage will meet my current needs. For example, I knew nothing about lymph system massage - nor about my lymph glands, for that matter, but this book has motivated me to learn about ways I can help my lymph glands function more efficiently to rid my body of toxins. I've always valued whole-body massage for general relaxation, but I now realize I could benefit from deep tissue massage to resolve some longstanding issues. I like how the book points out what types of massage are NOT recommended for specific physical conditions, But what really helped was the final chapter where the various forms of massage were summarized for easy comparison.

I enjoy massages a lot. My husband and I do it as a way to treat each other after a long day, and this was the perfect guide for us to learn some new techniques. The author discussed a number of disciplines, and wrote a detailed description and background of each one. The information can be a bit overwhelming for total beginners, but I suggest you just pick out the techniques you’re most interested in to fully enjoy the benefits of this guide. This is really great for trying at home! Would recommend to massage enthusiasts and massage therapists in training!

This book provides substantial information on massage which tend to be a bit overwhelming. I enjoyed reading and learning new techniques of massage therapy. I wanted a basic book of massage techniques, this is it. I also bought another book with photos that I don't find nearly as good. Regardless of which school of massage therapy you favor, you'll find the techniques presented in the book to be a valuable addition to your repertoire.
