This review is from: Functional Soft Tissue Examination and Treatment by Manual Methods: The Extremities (Hardcover)

Hi, I'm the author, Dr. Warren I. Hammer, DC,MS. The real reason for entering this arena is to announce to Amazon that the 2nd. edition of this text is now available. The new text is twice the size of the first and filled with the latest information about examining soft tissue and treating by soft tissue methods.

Matt Strauss (Pittsburgh, PA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Functional Soft Tissue Examination and Treatment by Manual Methods: New Perspectives (Hardcover)

As an athletic trainer at a large high school in Pennsylvania, I found this book very helpful in every day treatment of various ailments my athletes complained of. Although the process can be complex, the soft tissue treatments are very helpful and this book I have found to be a very valuable asset.

This review is from: Functional Soft Tissue Examination and Treatment by Manual Methods: New Perspectives (Hardcover)

Dr. Hammer has done a marvelous job in describing and picturing the soft tissue component of the subluxation complex. As a Chiropractor, this book has been invaluable to me AND the patients who have benefitted from the knowledge I have gained from Dr. Hammer. THANK YOU, DR. HAMMER!
