The Massage Therapy Text You Must Have,
By Michelle B. "Canadian R.M.T." (Cabarete, Dominican Republic) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Clinical Massage Therapy: Understanding, Assessing and Treating Over 70 Conditions (Paperback)
This is the most comprehensive text written in the field of massage therapy. It is a detailed and complete guide to the assessment and treatment of the majority of conditions that we as therapists are faced with.
Canadian massage therapy education is above and beyond most in the world and certainly within North America. This is one of our required texts and the foundation for our treatment based approach to healing. These authors have been instrumental in the advancement of Canadian therapist education and the development and elevation of our standards of practice. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to improve their massage therapy knowledge and gain a treatment based focus to their work.

This review is from: Clinical Massage Therapy: Understanding, Assessing and Treating Over 70 Conditions (Paperback)
This is a great book. I noticed that one reviewer said that you can buy it for $70 from the publisher...please note how long ago she wrote that review. It now costs over $85 there. We bought ours from the school bookstore for $85.91 because there were no used ones for sale at that time. Buy used if you can!
