This review is from: Prentice Hall Health's Outline Review of Massage Therapy (Paperback)
I bought this along with 4 other guides and this was easier to follow for
me. Loved the outline set up, simple and to the point and tells you why an answer is correct. I made flashcards of each test and just kept at it until I understood material that I was weak in. Usethis along with Laura Allen and Duke Cassel/Ashton book and you will be able to pass the exam.

This review is from: Prentice Hall Health's Outline Review of Massage Therapy (Paperback)
This book condenses all the information learned in one year very effectively and clearly. Excellent for review. I only wish the Disc had more test questions on it versus most of them being in the book. This book is excellent for people taking the MBLEX since it does not ask much in the way of eastern theories. If you are taking the other version of the test I would recommend something else with more eastern theories review.
