More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
This new edition provides professionals and students with a blue-print for diagnosing and treating back problems. Heavily backed by research, activities are carefully selected and presented in a logical manner. Clinicians are alerted to look for inappropriate movement patterns and how to assess these. Practical clinical advice helps to provide clinicians with the means to develop effective back care programmes and this edition is packed with more clinical applications based on new research. The book size has been increased to open up the contents and make the read easier. New illustrations and photos, together with a second interior colour, provide an attractive format from which to identify and learn important content. For the second edition, photographs of all the exercise techniques have been included for clarity. To make these even more useful, where appropriate they overlay the photographs to show body alignment.

Format:Hardcover
This is an excellent book for personal trainers and anyone with back problems. If you want to understand the spine and all the problems associated with it this is a very technical book which at times went completely over my head. I think more than one read is necessary! However the basis of the book and the exercises contained are first class. I would not want to be without it now as I refer to it constantly for advice and guidance on exercises for my personal training clients. A must have for the library as Chris Norris certainly knows his onions!

This book contains a lot of information but I found the cure for my back problems (prolapsed disc) in a few pages about strengthening some specific areas of the lower back. Worth the money, in my view as I do the exercises regularly and have not had any real problems since.

I've mostly browsed thru this and only read short parts yet, but it looks like a good one. The facts are right and this is well written. Can't wait to read the rest of it!
