Abstract

The aim of the massage is none other than maintaining, improving, or recovering a
person's state of health, from a holistic point of view. The main objective of this study was to
identify what is the people's perception (taking into consideration age categories, gender, and
physical training) toward massage and its effects on their own bodies. Due to its scientifically
proven effects, and also due to the fact that these effects are starting to be more and more known by the public, the massage has become a basic method in complex rehabilitation therapy, and the data shows that it is a very effective one, if it is well conceived, if it aims at realistic objectives, if it has visible effects that the patients can be relatively easy aware of, in order for it to be not only a hobby, but also a necessity, responding to our desire to be always strong and healthy.
