| Summary |
"The second edition of this groundbreaking handbook demystifies the crucial but under-examined issues of establishing professional boundaries in the manual therapies. With compassion, humanity, and humor, author Nina McIntosh condenses complex issues into simple, understandable terms. You'll find real-life examples and practical solutions to dilemmas and sensitive situations that all bodyworkers face in their everyday practice, including issues of confidentiality, sexual attraction, socializing with clients and setting fees."--BOOK JACKET |
