Handbook of Horticultural Therapy

Garden Therapy Practice for Occupational and Garden Therapists, Nurses and Gardeners

by Andreas Niepel, Gabriele Vef-Georg

Description

The health-promoting and healing effects of horticultural
therapy are recognized by experts and used by more and
more institutions. The authors present a practical book with
around 64 application programs described in detail, covering
horticultural crafts, floristry, botany, and the use of plants.


This comprehensive, practical guide is illustrated with over
200 color photographs. Each of the programs includes a
table listing the requirements of the activity in compliance
with ICF, so an appropriate activity for clients can be specifically selected and billed.


This horticultural therapy book allows occupational and horticulturaltherapists as well as nurses and gardeners with manual skills and a well-informed knowledge of plants to contribute to their clients’ flourishing, wellbeing, and recovery.
