🏺 Ancient Roman Medical Treatment 🪔 | ASMR Full Body Oil Massage in a Roman Bathhouse RP

It was Asclepiades (120 BC – 40 BC), originally of Turkey but ended up teaching Greek medicine in Rome, that suggested ailments be treated with a prescription of music, massage, and wine. It is his treatment that we use for this video! My research wasn't clear as to who would perform or where said treatment would occur, so I filled in some blanks with my own story. You come to a Roman bathhouse, with fires heating the caldarium (hot water bath) and soft water sounds all around you, and you take your daily bath. After you take part in the frigidarium, the tepidarium, and the caldarium baths, then you come to me to receive your medical massage. As it is Rome, we will use a healthy amount of olive oil to slide & knead your skin to help promote healing and general health :) Introduction ~ 00:00 – 00:46 Reviewing Your Prescription ~ 00:46 – 02:31 Applying Lanolin to Your Face ~ 02:31 – 06:21 Preparing For Your Massage ~ 06:21 – 07:39 Massaging Your Scalp ~ 07:39 – 12:36 Face Massage ~ 12:36 – 15:25 Moving to Massage Your Neck & Upper Chest ~ 15:25 – 19:59 Massaging Your Right Arm ~ 19:59 – 24:35 Left Arm Massage ~ 24:35 – 27:59 Massaging Your Abdomen ~ 27:59 – 30:51 Right Leg & Foot Massage ~ 30:51 - 38:44 Left Leg & Foot Massage ~ 38:44 – 48:21 Finishing with a Back Massage ~ 48:21 – 51:24 Reviewing the Remainder of Your Prescription ~ 51:24 - 54:11 Triggers include: soft speaking, whispering, crackling fire ambiance, flowing water ambiance, face touching, oily sounds / oily hands, scalp massage, face massage, hand & arm massage, inaudible whispers, and lots of personal attention. Lots & lots of resources were used for this video, but my most used was this video from English Heritage (awesome unintentional ASMR!): [   • Roman Makeup Tutorial | History Inspired |...  ] It details how the ancient Romans would have probably looked as well as mapping and explaining a Roman bathhouse. I wasn't able to emulate the Roman look perfectly, as I can't sew in my hair myself and only had 4 or 5 pins (I seriously spent 30 mins searching for pins under the furniture and on the floor and came up with at most 5), but I think it turned out solid given what I had. Editing was also apparent rushed, as my fade in the beginning was MISSING (bad past Calliope), so apologies on that. After the first few hours of editing, everything starts to blur together LOL Attributions: All Sounds from Freesound under a Creative Commons 0 License (https://creativecommons.org/publicdom...)

I don't tolerate discrimination or hatred based on attributes you can't change like where you were born, what color you are, if you have a disability, or who you love– above all, be kind to one another. We're all just people, just trying to do our thing. ❥ If you want to donate (but don't ever feel pressured to!)

It's just common courtesy to make everyone more comfortable here. Even if it doesn't apply to you, it may apply to others and makes the world of difference. “Why do you ask for consent to touch (even if it's a given)?” Coooommon courtesy; big thing with me. I hate being touched by anyone I don't know, but being asked even if I know I'm going to have to anyway is much more comfortable than someone putting their paws on me without warning. Common courtesy. “Is your name really Calliope? How do you say it?” Yup. It's pronounced Ka-Lie-Oh-Pee, not Kal-Ee-Ope. ❥ Channel intro created by Bearded Audio ASMR (   / @beardedaudioasmr  ) :) background image is “Close-up Photo of Green Leafed Plant” from user Aditya Aiyar on pexels.com, no attribution required. ❥ My equipment: Audio Recording – Rode NT1-A Microphones, 3Dio XLR Binaural Microphone, Blue Yeti Microphone, Roland CS-10EM Binaural Microphones Filming – Lumix G85 Camera ❥ Like & comment if you enjoyed this video, subscribe if you want to see more! ❥ Thanks for watching, have a whale of a day! :) #asmr #asmrroleplay #asmrmassage
