      L’objectif de cet ouvrage est d’informer, sensibiliser et initier les soignants aux gestes du toucher/masser dans les services de gériatrie, en Ehpad ou à domicile.S’appuyant sur plus de 30 ans de recherche pédagogique et d’expérience de terrain, les techniques du toucher-massage, initialement enseignées aux élèves infirmiers et aides-soignants, sont aujourd’hui largement adoptées par les professionnels du soin.Pour que le discours des soignants ne soit plus si distant, pour que les professionnel(le)s ne se cantonnent pas à un rôle de technicien(ne) et que les soins ne soient plus essentiellement centrés sur le curatif ou la suppléance, mais tout autant sur le lien humain, il est essentiel de leur offrir les moyens de dispenser des soins autrement, de leur permettre d’instaurer un contact plus riche, plus tendre, de réinventer le geste gratuit.C’est précisément ce que propose à travers cet ouvrage, Joël Savatofski, l’un des pionniers du massage bien-être en France : prendre soin autrement des personnes âgées.Avec sérieux, professionnalisme et une touche d’humour, Joël Savatofski a développé une approche du massage hors des sentiers battus : ludique, créative, accessible à tous. Une vision qui permet aux soignants de se détendre, de retrouver du plaisir et du sens à leur pratique, tout en offrant aux patients un bien-être tangible.Découpé en deux parties, ce livre explore d’abord les bienfaits du toucher, puis propose une approche pratique et illustrée, décrivant chaque geste avec précision : contexte, intérêt, limites. Ces gestes essentiels du soin de confort et du bien-être, créés pour leur simplicité de mise en oeuvre, sont adaptés aux différentes situations du quotidien : au lit, en fauteuil, pendant la toilette, à domicile…À votre tour, laissez-vous guideret découvrez un art du soin où le toucher devient un véritable langage.Joël Savatofski est l’un des tous premiers experts des massages. D’abord masseur-kinésithérap... diplômé en psychologie, il fonde en 1986 l’École européenne du Toucher-massage®. Cofondateur de la Fédération française de massage bien-être (FFMBE), pédagogue reconnu pour ses nombreuses innovations, il est également auteur d’une quinzaine d’ouvrages de références.
