Product Description
Product Description
Like the popular previous Edition, the new Edition of Palpation Skills has been designed and developed to help the reader to understand and acquire the palpatory skills which are the foundation of all effective manual therapy assessments and treatments. Subtle and sensitivity of touch and the accurate interpretation of palpatory tests are required from the start of training in any of the manual therapy professions. It is difficult to learn these from written descriptions or static illustrations alone. By combining a workbook approach with the use of video demonstrations and audio explanations on a CD-Rom, Palpation Skills provides the student and developing practitioner with a portable workshop which they can access at any time.
Palpation Skills: Assessment and Diagnosis through Touch will be of practical to use to every manual therapist and practitioner at all stages of their professional development. It can help them to extend the range of skills they can bring to their practice by bringing together suggested approaches from a variety of disciplines.
