Indonesians turn to massage
“Elderly Indonesian masseurs in the country’s
earthquake-devastated Java region have found themselves in high
demand as traumatized survivors seek alternative treatment to soothe
their pain.
“‘I visited the masseurs yesterday’
[said Suparjo, 61, who gave only one name]. ‘They massaged
my shoulder and fingers. I am fine now. I can sleep again. Some
people even come here after being treated by doctors,’ she
said, smiling.”
