The Ethics Of Touch: The Hands-on Practitioner's Guide To Creating A Professional, Safe And Enduring Practice Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
In this groundbreaking work on ethics, Ben Benjamin and Cherie Sohnen-Moe directly address the difficult, confusing, and seldom-discussed-but-often-troubling dilemmas confronting touch therapy practitioners. By honestly describing the issues, identifying clear principles, naming specific resources and using stories straight from the treatment room, they have written a book to guide, support and inspire both students and seasoned practitioners. Reflective exercises and questions allow the reader to personalize each chapter. With love and respect for the field and for clients everywhere, Dr. Benjamin and Ms. Sohnen-Moe articulate high expectations and outline practical steps to meet them. This book belongs in the office of every somatic practitioner and in the classrooms of every professional training school.The Ethics of Touch has sold 60,000 copies, and is recommended by more than 750 healing arts associations and schools. Over 250 schools require it as a text.The first edition of The Ethics of Touch was five years in the making. The second edition is significantly revised with additional and updated material, and new chapters. It is a collaborative endeavor of many knowledgeable, caring, and articulate professionals. Most massage therapists, bodyworkers, chiropractors, acupuncturists, physical therapists, and other somatic practitioners do not receive adequate ethics training in school. This book supports hands-on professionals in expanding their knowledge about the field of ethics, to better manage boundaries, and to run ethical practices.Changes to the Second Edition:New chapters on “Communications Techniques and Strategies” and “The Team Approach”Updated Web links throughoutInclusion of Topics and Key Terms in each chapterGlossary with definitions of all the Key Terms on the chapter opener pagesAdditional scenariosAdditional charts, tables, and figures

An excellent book for anyone that is involved in healing modalities, in my opinion. Some "real" example stories that will give you pause to reflect
it was a vital book for the Massage Therapy course I am in. even though doubtful I shall keep it, it downloaded very nicely on my computer.
Thank you!
