Written by the Director of the world-renowned Touch Research
Institutes, this book examines the practical applications of
important massage therapy research findings. Each chapter of this
comprehensive resource provides a clear and authoritative review of
what is reliably known about the effects of touch for a variety of
clinical conditions such as depression, pain management, movement
problems, and functioning of the immune system. Coverage also
includes the benefits of massage to specific populations such as
pregnant women, neonates, infants, and adolescents. This book is
suitable for massage therapists (including Shiatsu practitioners),
aromatherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, physical therapists,
and nurses.
