Editorial Reviews:

This groundbreaking work on ethics addresses 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, the authors have written a book to guide, support, and inspire both students and seasoned practitioners. This book belongs in the office of every bodywork practitioner and in the classrooms of every professional training school. Features include useful and thought-provoking activities and exercises and real-life scenarios to intrigue students.

Summary: Excellent and Thought Provoking
Comment: This book is written with massage therapists, physical therapists, chiropractors, etc., in mind, but as an Alexander Technique teacher I find it excellent, thorough and thought provoking. Well worth the price and time.

Summary: more of a college textbook
Comment: The Ethics of Touch is a good textbook to begin learning about professional boundaries and ethics which is a much needed topic for massage therapists who are faced with issues on a daily basis.

What other profession is there that has people come in and take their clothes off and let a strange person touch them. Such a dynamic is ripe for transferrence and counter-transference.

I can't quite put my finger on the reason why I only am giving this book a 3 star rating but it is because it seems like such a cold and impersonal account of ethics. I would recommend getting this book but get some others too - The Educated Heart by Nina McIntosh, Issues and Ethics of the Helping Professions by Corey, and The Ethics of Caring.
