Product Description
Product Description
A guide to the use of arts therapies in the treatment of patients with diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.
From the Back Cover
Arts Therapies and Progressive Illness is a guide to the use of arts therapies in the treatment of patients with diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. In the last few years arts therapies have been used in an increasingly wide range of applications with new groups of patients, such as patients in palliative care, or with learning disabilities - Diane Waller has been a driving force behind this expansion.
Together with an impressive array of contributors, Diane Waller covers treatments such as art therapy, dance movement therapy and music therapy.
This broadly focused, multi-disciplinary book will be of great interest to arts therapists, arts therapy educators, medical, social work and other staff who are concerned to devise care plans for these patients and their relatives.
