Product Description

Book Description

The definitive practitioner's reference book on sports massage.

Product Description

This is the definitive reference book on massage as a remedial therapy for sports training and injuries. It covers all practical and theroretical aspects of the subject, ranging from the basics through to the treatment of soft tissue injuries; and it gives guidance on how to work in a support role with medical practitioners treating more serious injury. It offers innovative new ideas like 'working posture and the psychology of injury of treatment. This book goes beyond the conventional idea that massage is just a pleasant luxury, and shows it as a vital component in an athlete's training. The therapy offers effective relief for muscular problems, with practical advice on how to achieve permanant solutions for better performance in sport.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST SPORTS MASSAGE BOOK OUT, 20 Jan 2006

"sportstherapy" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sport & Remedial Massage Therapy (Paperback)

I am a current sport therapy student at university. This is the book that we were recommended by top physiotherapist. This book is easy to read and easy to understand, it will teach you everything you will need to know and has clear and easy to flow photos of how to treat different injuries that your client might have. It is well worth the money
