Bodywork therapy has taken its rightful place as a viable form of health care in the world. Practitioners are reaching a wider variety of client populations than ever before. Statistics indicate that one of these populations is those who have a history of sexual abuse.

Touch often affects survivors of sexual abuse in unexpected ways. Understanding the potential effects of touch on survivors of sexual abuse is essential for all professionals who touch people.

A practical guide with a theoretical groundwork, this manual gives the bodywork professional a sense of the survivor's process and provides twenty-five guidelines with explanations of when and how to apply these guidelines to your existing practice. Included are articles published by the author on the subject.
