Book Description

0781790808 978-0781790802 January 11, 2007 Second

Completely updated and rewritten to meet the specific needs of physical therapist assistants, this Second Edition focuses on the implementation of treatment plans and intervention using the appropriate therapeutic exercise techniques. The book describes a wide variety of therapeutic exercises and details the purpose, position, and procedure for each technique. Case studies and pediatric and geriatric recommendations are included.

This edition has three all-new chapters: the role of the physical therapist assistant in therapeutic exercise, enhancement of breathing and pulmonary function, and functional fitness training for the elderly. Other new features include a two-color design, updated illustrations, and a glossary.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Therapeutic Exercise for Physical Therapist Assistants: Techniques for Intervention (Point (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins)) (Paperback)
The book is a great text for PTAs. However if you buy from this seller, you won't be able to return anything! They will not answer emails or allow you to return the product. I accidently ended up with two and they would not let me return it even though it was unopened and unused.
