JOB’S BODY |
Deane Juhan’s JOB’S BODY holds a unique, almost magical place in the history of bodywork and practical healing touch AND the study of the body’s all-important response to touch. Juhan was an early bodywork pioneer and advocate that the right touch heals and indeed, transforms human possibility. Deane Juhan teaches from inside experience and includes a vast range of supportive medical and scientific literature.This is a powerful combination: exacting research, guided by direct experience, and informed by insightful intuition.This book offers tremendous value for virtually all massage practitioners and interested non-professionals due to the depth, clarity, imagination and sheer vitality he brings to the material.
