Rub On!

In the The Tomb of Akmanthor, two men were depicted having what was presumably a massage. A massage is supposed to promote relaxation and the well-being of a person. The history of massage must be as long as the world oldest civilizations as archeological evidence on it has been found in many ancient civilizations including China, India, Rome, Greece, Mesopotamia and of course, Egypt. Massage caught on in America only in the middle part of the 19th century after it was introduced by two New York physicians. People like to be rubbed!
