Touch is the basis of our sensory world. It is our primary mode of relating and a powerful tool for self-regulation, learning, and socialization. In this book, Michael Changaris documents the growing body of research on how essential touch is to human wellness.

The book weaves together shared experiences, illustrative charts, tables for clinical interventions, and practical homework exercises — a resource for practitioners, teachers, social workers, parents, and families seeking a deeper understanding of the impact of touch on well-being.
