在过去的十年中，许多研究采用了治疗景观的概念来描述地方如何参与愈合或健康增强的过程。虽然这项工作有效地强调了这些地方的环境，社会和象征性方面，但相对较少考虑这些治疗效果出现的关系动态。在本文中，我试图通过两个相关的工作机构的参与来解决这种缺失：地方的生态配方和自我的关系概念。这些想法是探讨参考的经验，客人在一个喘息护理中心在多塞特郡，主要是在英格兰南部的农村县。除了住宅服务外，该中心还非常重视促进客人与更广泛的自然环境的接触。一些一般性的分析和方法论的点开发方面，未来的治疗景观研究。(c)2005爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Over the last decade a number of studies have employed notions of therapeutic landscape to describe the ways in which places become implicated in processes of healing or health enhancement. While this work has usefully highlighted the environmental, social and symbolic dimensions Of Such places, relatively less consideration has been given to the relational dynamics through which these therapeutic effects emerge. In this paper I seek to address this absence through engagement with two related bodies of work: ecological formulations of place and relational notions of selfhood. These ideas are explored with reference to the experiences of guests at a respite care centre in Dorset, a predominantly rural county in southern England. Alongside its residential services, this centre places a strong emphasis on facilitating guests' engagement with the wider natural environment in which it is set. A number of general analytical and methodological points are developed with regard to future therapeutic landscape research. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
