The Basic Need for Touch
Science & history provide clear & ample evidence of the basic human need for
touch. For example,
Hippocrates who is a historical figure also known as the "Father of
Modern Medicine", prescribed massage as a medical modality in
regimens intended to improve and maintain one's overall health and
well-being. Further supportive facts & information can be viewed on the benefits and infant
