5.0 out of 5 stars Clinical Application of Neuromuscular Techniques - Vol. I, January 26, 2001
By Heidrun von Buschow (Hood River, OR United States) - See all my reviews
This is a really clearly written, concise book, with drawings and pictures of muscle positions, trigger points, etc. I bought the Jane Travell Myofascial Pain and Dysfunction Books before this one came out, and for the money wish I had bought the Clinical Application of Neuromuscular Tech. Book. Unless you are a Physician, who wants to inject the patient's trigger points with a saline solution, and then you better be very exact in your aim with the needle, I think the Clinical Application of Neurom. Tech. Book is a much more practical, useful, hands on, straight forward book that addresses all the trigger points, origins and insertions of the muscles in a very user friendly way. Until this book came out, Jane Travell's was the only great reference guide; but what patient really likes injections? Now this book surpasses Dr. Travells, in that all the material in it is useful and usable. Can't wait for Vol. II, Lower Body, to come out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reference, April 10, 2007
I am a student of muscular therapy and own this as well as Travell's opus. Both are excellent this has more hands on techniques while Travell uses more of a hands off (cold spray and injection) techniques. I refer to this text often and would recommend it highly.

3.0 out of 5 stars worth a buy if you do not mind typos, December 10, 2002
By A Customer
Clinical Application of Neuromuscular Techniques is an alternative to Travell's Trigger Point Manual if you do not do TP injections. It has great pictures, well explained treatment techniques (if you are up to date with your anatomy and medical terms) and lots of references. The disadvantage are typos (the editor must have had a bad day and was unable to write the German words for the references right, but also some English words are off!) Parts of the text are repeated in the book twice, what I thought is unnecessary and only adds to the number of pages but not the quality of content.
