Written in easy-to-understand language that's ideal for all bodywork therapists and acupressure practitioners, this popular textbook illustrates how to make precise, systematic evaluations of soft tissue problems. It provides up-to-date information related to a specific range of therapeutic techniques. A new accompanying CD-ROM, complete with video clips that demonstrate how to perform the methods described in the text, offers visual cues for unique, clinically relevant instruction.
  • Clear descriptions of techniques show the reader how to rapidly and accurately identify and assess local soft tissue dysfunction.
  • A clear set of treatment options for these dysfunctions clarify which techniques may be used safely by all bodywork practitioners and therapists.
  • Both European and North American versions of NMT are presented and described.
  • An analysis and comparison of the major reflex systems used in bodywork provides a link between bodywork and acupressure approaches.
  • The author is a highly respected, internationally known teacher, practitioner and author, with contributions from two of the leading practitioners in the U.S.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Modern Neuromuscular Techniques (Paperback)
Leon Chaitow and his collaborators have compiled extensive research on the application of force to the body during body work sessions. It offers bodyworkers a lot to consider when working with their clients, and some technique choices they may not be aware of.
