However, the variety of different styles of massage available often leaves parents baffled and unsure about which touch therapy treatment is best for their child.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis practical guide explains how massage works, how the body senses touch, and how touch therapy can benefit children with ASDs. The book goes on to describe exactly what each type of massage entails and covers anatomy-oriented massages, energy-based massages and therapeutic bodywork, helping readers to tell Reiki from reflexology, a Swedish from a sports massage, or tuina from a Thai massage. With recommendations for selecting the right style of massage, advice on locating a practitioner, and tips on preparing a child with an ASD for massage, this book is the perfect resource to find a therapy - or combination of therapies - to suit the individual needs of each child.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book will be essential reading for all parents and caregivers interested in the benefits of therapeutic massage and bodywork for children and adolescents with ASDs, and practitioners looking at alternatives for therapeutic intervention.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"box-collateral box-reviews\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; color: rgb(105, 105, 105); font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.652px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"box-collateral-content\" style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; opacity: 1!important;\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"std\" style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e'Highlighting varied approaches to the science of touch, massage therapist, educator, and author Virginia Cowen provides resources for parents committed to enhancing the health of their children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD)... this recommended guide outlines touch-based massage and non-touch energy work, serving both the ASD community and others with an interest in alternative health options.'\u003cbr\u003e- ForeWord Reviews\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"box-collateral box-authors\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; color: rgb(105, 105, 105); font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.652px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthors\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"box-collateral-content\" style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; opacity: 1!important;\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"std\" style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eBy (author): Virginia S.
