Surfing? As a form of therapy? It’s not just possible—it’s powerful.
Surf therapy is an emerging field with promising results which aims to address the mental, physical and emotional epidemics of the modern age. In Surf Therapy, author Cash Lambert paddles out with today’s leading surf therapy practitioners and surf therapy organizations to discover how surfing is changing lives for the better.
See how much surf therapy can help in treating:
• Drug addiction and addiction recovery
• Children and adults diagnosed with autism
• Social development of at-risk inner-city children
• Physical disabilities like spinal cord injuries
• PTSD in active-duty police officers
• Terminal illnesses like cystic fibrosis
• Women recovering from abusive living situations
With interviews from today’s leading surf therapy practitioners and data from groundbreaking studies, Surf Therapy is a story of science, resilience, and the lengths that humans will go to help one another in need.
