Product Page - Embodied Being: The Philosophical Roots of Manual Therapy
$21.95 USD
Grounded in the author's decades of practice as a Rolfer™ and Zen meditator, the book offers a first-of-its-kind three-step method for training practitioners how to see holistically, given the enormously important role perception plays in assessing clients. By exposing many of the unconscious philosophical assumptions that occlude our understanding the depths of manual therapy, Embodied Being promises to illuminate the full scope of body-mind healing, from the point of view of both the practitioner and the person receiving the work.
