Publisher's Notes
Medicine Hands accomplishes a remarkable feat: it gives new, in-depth insights on a specific topic -- how to use massage as therapy for cancer patients -- while answering the questions of a broad spectrum of people: patients and their families, bodyworkers, allopathic and alternative physicians, hospice workers, physical therapists, and more. Vignettes about everyday people, and simple definitions of words such as "malignant, " make this book accessible to the layperson as well as the professional. Sidebars with quotes from patients, poets, physicians, therapists, and family members add a genuine human touch to the technical information.
