Massage Pathology Chronicles

Review of Mosby’s Pathology for Massage Therapists, by Salvo and Anderson. Within the course of Dr. Johnson.

Chapter 4 was important to me on a personal level, as my mother has extremely severe bunions, which causes her a great deal of discomfort. When I practice massage on her, she always has me work for a long time on her feet, as massage helps her with this pain. I usually do circular motions on the underside of the foot between the second and third toe, and she reports this alleviates some of the pain. Massage is very important to me because my mother has an extremely bad back, as well as bunions on her feet, so I want to help her in any way that I can with her issues.
