5.0 out of 5 stars "OT for Phys Dys" was a survival tool, December 17, 2000

By	Lori Biehle (Missouri) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Occupational Therapy for Physical Dysfunction (Hardcover)

OT for Physical Dysfunction proved to be indispensible both in school and in practice. This text has practice skills in assessment and treatment organized for use in problem-based and in evidence-based learning courses. Treatment principles are outlined with actual therapy techniques, sample documentation and specific information to treat different diagnoses with photos. Absolutely my most-used text.

This review is from: Occupational Therapy for Physical Dysfunction (Hardcover)

As an OT student, I've used this book more in clinic (rehab settings) than any other text I own. It is an invaluable reference for manual muscle testing and goniometery. Trombly carries over from class to clinic with ease, and I've even had OTRs borrow it during my fieldwork.
