20.500.12556/ReVIS-12713 Problematika terapevtskega dotika v manualni terapiji diplomsko delo visokošolskega strokovnega študijskega programa prve bolonjske stopnje Fizioterapija Teoretična izhodišča: Terapevtski dotik je v manualni terapiji pogosto uporabljeno sredstvo, ki presega zgolj tehnično izvedbo terapevtskih postopkov. V nalogi so obravnavani strokovni, odnosni in etični vidiki dotika ter vprašanja, povezana s klinično presojo, soglasjem, mejnimi situacijami in profesionalno komunikacijo. Poseben poudarek je namenjen razlikovanju med tehničnim in odnosnim dotikom ter vplivu spola in delovnega okolja terapevta na uporabo dotika. Namen naloge je bil poglobljeno raziskati, kako terapevti razumejo, izvajajo in etično utemeljujejo terapevtski dotik v vsakodnevni praksi. Metoda: Za raziskovanje tega področja smo uporabili kvalitativno metodologijo z izvedbo polstrukturiranih intervjujev. Vsebina štirih intervjujev je bila analizirana s pomočjo tematske analize, pri čemer so bile identificirane ključne kategorije, kot so namen in funkcija dotika, doživljanje odgovornosti, etične dileme in izkušnje v različnih kontekstih obravnave. Rezultati: Ugotovili smo, da terapevti terapevtski dotik razumejo kot večplastno strokovno orodje, ki vključuje tako tehnično natančnost kot tudi empatijo in refleksijo. Dotik ni dojet kot enosmerno dejanje, temveč kot prilagodljiv in odziven element terapevtskega procesa. Posebej pomembno vlogo ima zavedanje o etičnih mejah in pomena jasne komunikacije s pacientom. Razprava: Rezultati kažejo na potrebo po večji strokovni obravnavi področja terapevtskega dotika, zlasti v okviru izobraževanja in oblikovanja kliničnih smernic, ki bi omogočale varno in učinkovito prakso. Theoretical background: Therapeutic touch is a commonly used modality in manual therapy that goes beyond the mere technical execution of therapeutic procedures. This thesis addresses the professional, relational, and ethical aspects of touch, with a focus on clinical decision-making, informed consent, boundary-setting, and professional communication. Special attention is given to the distinction between technical and relational touch, as well as the influence of the therapist’s gender and work setting (public or private) on the application of touch. The aim of the thesis was to explore how therapists understand, apply, and ethically justify therapeutic touch in clinical practice. Methods: A qualitative research approach was used, based on semi-structured interviews. The content of four interviews was analysed using thematic analysis, which identified key categories such as the purpose and function of touch, the therapist’s perception of responsibility, ethical dilemmas, and contextual experiences in treatment. Results: The findings show that therapists understand therapeutic touch as a multidimensional clinical tool that combines technical precision with empathy and reflection. Touch is not perceived as a one-way act, but as a flexible and responsive element of the therapeutic process. Particular emphasis is placed on respecting ethical boundaries and ensuring clear communication with the patient. Discussion: The results highlight the need for more systematic professional engagement with therapeutic touch, particularly through education and the development of clinical guidelines to support safe and effective practice. terapevtski dotik manualna terapija etika tehnični in odnosni dotik soglasje therapeutic touch manual therapy ethics technical and relational touch informed consent true false false M.
