Publisher Description:
  • The first text on the market that delineates deep tissue routines or treatments.

  • Each chapter on conditions follows a template with a definition of the condition, a list of associated symptoms, indications and contraindications for massage, and a procedure/routine.
  • Routines are outlined step-by-step and clearly describe for the therapist exactly what needs to be done to treat a particular condition.
  • Heavily illustrated, with many photos of each technique and routine, as well as some photos illustrating conditions.
  • Photos of indicated and contraindicated stretches with a brief explanation of why they are indicated or contraindicated.
  • Includes DVD-ROM with over 1 hour of video showing techniques desribed in the text.
  • An excellent clinical companion for massage therapists.
