Abstract
In the early 1800s, Peter Henry Ling (also known as Per Henrik Ling) was perhaps the first to notice what numerous others pioneers of physiotherapy have already observed in the past centuries: massage and physical exercises are critical for healing many chronic and acute forms of pain. Even in some way controversial, Ling is widely considered the Father of Massage .
