EDITORS COMMENTS
Greetings from the Massage Parlour! Step back in time with this image from the 1910s, showcasing the therapeutic world of early 20th century Germany. A young woman, dressed in a charming spotty swimsuit, is receiving a vigorous massage from a solid and formidable masseuse. The masseuse, clad in a traditional apron and wearing a stern expression, focuses intently on kneading away at the client's upper thigh, likely targeting persistent knots, aches, and pains. Massage was a popular form of alternative therapy during this era, providing relief from various health issues and promoting overall well-being. The massage parlour, a sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation, offered a range of treatments, including hydrotherapy, electrical therapy, and of course, traditional Swedish and deep tissue massages. This photograph, taken circa 1910s, showcases the intimacy and personal connection between the masseuse and her client. The use of a pillow for added comfort and support is also evident, highlighting the attention to detail and expertise of the therapist. The historical setting of this image invites us to reflect on the evolution of health and wellness practices throughout the centuries. Despite the passing of time, the therapeutic benefits of massage continue to be cherished and appreciated by people all around the world.
