PATIENT-PRACTITIONER RELATIONSHIP IN ACUPUNCTURE

Basing his work on the fundamental role of the therapeutic healer-patient relationship, Hammer has drawn from his extensive personal and professional experience to compose this text for practitioners who are seeking effective ways of patient interface and the skills necessary to guide patients through emotional, psychological, and spiritual challenges as part of the healing process. Easily understandable and anecdotal in style, he avoids psychological jargon and presents the basic tenets of the therapeutic relationship.
