Classical massage is one of the oldest areas of medical knowledge. It comes from India and China, where he fell within the scope of religious rituals. The first precise instructions perform classical massage, come from the Hindu books of wisdom Veda from 1800 BC

With time massage as such has been abandoned in religious rituals, and although that came within the scope of treatment, the medicine does not formally addressed it. The works of Hippocrates, Celsus and Galen, we can find references to the fact that doctors recommended massage in some diseases. In ancient Greece, massage was particularly important for athletes participating in the Olympics. Classic massage that consisted of fat from the body by anointing with oil before the competition. In these treatments can be ascribed to the genesis of classical massage.

As for the Slavic countries (in Poland until the mid-fourteenth century), we know that there were steam baths, the baths where people were subjected to klepaniu rods, in order to improve tissue perfusion.

During the medieval period, the then prevailing rules and the rejection of physicality as a habitat for human evil and sin, did not contribute to the development or education or healthcare. Presumably, that in this context also and classical massage was abandoned and its further development lies in the hands of succeeding generations.

A classic massage in the full sense, can speak only in the XVI., When it was revived in France by the great physician, surgeon Ambrose Pare. For the first time in the history of medicine, the doctor noted he had written and used as an official classic massage treatment.

The real development of therapeutic massage was only at the beginning of the nineteenth century by Swedish doctors. The greatest merit lay Per Henrik Ling, Swedish medical doctor, founder of the Central Institute of Gymnastics in Stockholm.

Then I came out from under the feathers of doctors developed system of massage in various diseases and prevention. Massage school has created a classic Dutch doctor

Johan Mezger of Amsterdam, which is considered as the creator of "scientific massage" classic. For the first time has been developed in a separate work of the whole system of classical massage methods, indications and contraindications based on personal experience and research of the author.

For students Mezger include a Pole, a professor at the University of Berlin - Isidore Zabludowski. He left a great scientific achievements, including numerous scientific papers on classical massage, published in Polish, German and Russian.
