With the support of palliative care and hospice a growing number of
people are choosing the kinds of experiences they want at the end
of life. Massage can offer moments of comfort, wellbeing, and
beauty at a challenging time for patients and their loved ones, yet
most of us are not prepared with the right skills or knowledge to
offer this help. Palliative Touch: Massage for People at the End of
Life is written for healthcare providers and complementary
therapists who wish to provide safe, comforting touch for people
with life-limiting illness, as well as anyone who might wish to
support a dying client or loved one to live life to the fullest,
right up until the end. Based on more than two decades of field and
inpatient hospice experience, this book addresses topics from
common end-of-life symptoms and the stages of dying to cultural
issues and how these can impact end-of-life care. Readers are
guided to engage with the material at whatever level might be
appropriate for their needs, with practical tips in every chapter.
Beautiful color photographs, actual case studies, and stories from
therapists, caregivers, and patients bring this information to
life.
