Editorial Reviews

Review
"This book is a leader in the field for instruction in the theoretical basis of therapeutic modalities and the acquisition of skills necessary to correctly and safely use modalities clinically. A number of modality textbooks are currently available, but this is more thorough in its coverage. In addition, the laboratory activities and checklists facilitate instruction and guide practice in the psychomotor skills of therapeutic modality application. 3 Stars."--Doody's Review Service (Doody's )

Product Description

The most comprehensive book on therapeutic modalities

A Doody's Core Title!

Provides a theoretically based but practically oriented guide to the use of therapeutic modalities. Perfect for the required course in the Physical Therapy curriculum or as a clinical reference, the text features extensive use of case studies, laboratory activities, and a renown illustration program.

3.0 out of 5 stars Does the job, June 13, 2008
It is an ok book. I wish it had color pictures. It explains all the modalities used in therapy. I wish they has more concise tables summing up the parameter but it does the job.
