Video Course: Teaching Research Literacy: Igniting the Spark
Pete Whitridge
This presentation into manual therapy research is designed to help you expand your knowledge about the effects of touch on the human body. From infants to burn patients to cancer survivors, everyone has a story to tell about how a good massage helped them cope with their problems, aches, and pains. Most importantly, we will explore the current research into aspects of touch and manual therapies—from energy work to rehabilitation.
