Job's Body : A Handbook for Bodywork

Job's Body : A Handbook for Bodywork by deane-juhan. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781581770223.

Possibly the most famous and widely used single resource in the field of bodywork (required for national certification in massage therapy), this beautifully written book gives a richly detailed picture of how and why the body responds to therapeutic touch. A reader-friendly yet scientifically reliable and detailed introduction to the human body, this updated edition (including new introductory and supplemental material) surveys "bodywork," showing how its practices alter deep-seated patterns of body and mind. For general reader as much as professional and student interested in the body-mind and not wanting a dry, clinical presentation, this is the book.
