3.0 out of 5 stars
I wish Ward Wrote More,
By Joe Cool "thedancingcrab" (Bronx, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Myofascial Release Manual (Spiral-bound)
The author brags that Ward, who termed the phrase "myofascial release" and helped popularized it among mainstream American Osteopaths, was one of the co-authors but he only contributes two paragraphs regarding myofascial release. The book describes different techniques for different problems but the reader should be warned: Myofascial release is both clinician and patient dependent, so the book should only be a guide of what you could possibly do. Furthermore, myofascial release involves three parts: compression, traction and twist. The author just describes stretching in her techniques. Because myofascial release is so patient and clinician dependent writing a book on this particular technique is very difficult. The author has not been able to meet the challenge.

a practical book,
By Tarek (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Myofascial Release Manual (Spiral-bound)
This book is useful to help you apply the manual techniques of trigger point release. However,you will have to buy other books to have a complete guide about the practice of myofascial release. This book can help you.

This review is from: The Myofascial Release Manual (Hardcover)
This is one of a few books I purchased via Amazon on Myofascia Release therapy. This one is well written. It has many photos but I wish there were more - which would earn it all 5 stars. Highly recommended.

Great book, but its very text-book like. Don't go into it thinking its an easy read . . . its extremely technical. Working knowledge of anatomy and kineseology is a must!
