Join Gill Tree's campaign to create a more Pro-Touch Society
   

This manifesto seeks to raise the professional status and recognition of the Massage industry; celebrating its contribution to individuals, companies and the economy. It intends to influence society to become more nurturing, pro-touch and to push for Massage to be more frequently considered particularly for chronic (long-term) conditions where GP’s have identified gaps in their effectiveness. 

“Half of all GP appointments, and £7 in every £10 spent on health and social care, is taken up caring for people living with long-term conditions. As the population  ages, the proportion of people affected and the demand on health and social services will continue to rise. A growing body of evidence shows that, done properly, a system that supports people with long-term conditions to manage their own health has benefits for the person, their health and for health services. http://www.health.org.uk/

We can all benefit from the stress reducing effects of massage. One in five visits to GP surgeries are stress related  and the 2013 NHS information centre survey revealed that hospital admissions for stress have risen by 7% in just twelve months. Massage provides a preventative role in health care whilst also reducing the symptoms of many diseases and disorders. It is widely used in managing back pain, has a role to play in reducing absenteeism at work and is employed in specialist hospitals in assisting in recovery from treatment and surgery. It can raise self esteem and self worth amongst the sick, mentally ill and elderly and is widely provided throughout the UK in hospices often by massage therapists who volunteer their time to improve quality of life and reduce the pain and suffering of the terminally ill.

We need to create a cultural shift that recognises the crucial importance of touch for our mental and physical wellbeing and embrace the professional role of the Massage therapist as a catalyst for the release of stress, tension and stimulated good health.

The current barriers to affective access to massage as a therapeutic and preventative intervention need to be eliminated through improved accessibility; overcoming the fear of touch, meeting the costs of treatment for the vulnerable and ill, increasing professional standards and improving the quality and content of educational provision.

Massage is not a luxury for the few, a reward or treat but an essential, cost effective and often cost saving therapy. Nurturing touch for the infant is more important than food. Without it a child can suffer marasmus- they wither away and die. Research tells us that a society where children are held closely to their mother for their first year in life is 60% more likely to be a non-violent society. Beyond infancy; it is equally important for a grown person to stay chemically balanced.

We are currently limited and even damaged by the ‘duties of care’ that inhibit teachers, social workers and foster carers from comforting a child.  I am concerned that we are regulating against human nature. Care homes and hospitals are struggling to care sufficiently for the elderly due to regulations and processes that take time away from the patient. Busy working parents have less time to be tactile with their children. Giving nurturing touch to the young whilst teaching them to say yes or no, empowers them to assert themselves to reject unwanted touch, reduce the opportunity for abuse and teenage pregnancies.

Society is displaying unrest through delinquency, isolation, violence, loneliness, stress, illness, mental illness and abuse of others. By more readily accepting touch we can build a more tactile, loving, respectful and stable society.

The majority of Massage therapists are self employed and are a dedicated group of people who make a huge difference through their work both paid and voluntary. The growth of this Massage industry would contribute greatly to the society and the economy.

- Actively promote training programs that ensure there is a clear distinction between caring, loving touch and inappropriate touch, so our children are safely and appropriately cared for and nurtured

- Teach young babies to say no to touch when they do not want it
