The benefits of therapeutic gardens, where users can interact with
plants for the purpose of moving towards a specific outcome or
meeting a particular need, is increasingly being recognized in
healthcare and beyond. This book provides a practical guide for
garden designers, horticulture professionals, landscape architects
and therapeutic horticulturalists to create a successful and
sustainable therapeutic garden space, whether from scratch or
working with an existing site. An appreciation of how the garden
will be used is an essential part of its design, so this book also
outlines therapeutic activities and ideas, making it a valuable
resource for healthcare professionals, counsellors, teachers,
activity co-ordinators, social prescribers and occupational
therapists who are looking to use horticulture in their therapeutic
practice too.
