Massage At School
These school children in England trade massage in the classroom:
But after a pilot programme in the summer term, massage is now a regular part of classes in the school's foundation, infants and year three groups.
"At the end of last year we saw an increase of 50% in terms of their reading and writing ability," Mr Thompson said.
"We are not putting it down just to the massage programme.
"But we do feel the massage has helped concentration and learning, particularly in the afternoons."
