Medicine Hands: Massage Therapy for People with Cancer order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 49.99 each
Paperback
Author: Gayle McDonald
In Stock: 0
This text sets out to debunk a pervasive health myth that massage is anathema for those suffering with cancer, which is based on the idea that cancer can metastasize as a result of massage. Claiming that this is not rooted in any science, the book presents clinical evidence that proves the opposite. Instead, it explains that touch and massage are vital to a cancer patient's health and well-being. The book offers practical guidance for health professionals and the layperson. Research is highlighted with anecdotes, stories and vignettes of cancer patients, massage therapists, caregivers, hospice workers and other health professionals. Practical information is presented on administering touch, drug-related considerations, providing care at home, and dealing with hospital and hospice situations.
