Summary |
"Therapeutic Touch involves a variety of subtle interactions intended to help and heal. It is more than touching patients in order to comfort them but rather a set of skills which all healthcare practitioners can integrate into their everyday practice. This new edition of Therapeutic Touch offers detailed discussion, analysis, background research and clear guidance for the practice of Therapeutic Touch."--BOOK JACKET |
