Basic Clinical Massage Therapy
Description:
By James Clay, David Pounds
Pages: 450, Hardcover
ISBN: 0-683-30653-7

This richly illustrated text teaches the basic techniques of clinical massage therapy by embedding illustrations of internal structures directly into photographs of live models. Each muscle or muscle group is shown, along with surrounding structures, surface landmarks, and the therapist's hands. Useful as a textbook of clinical massage and anatomy, this text can also be used as a practical patient communication tool. Basic clinical techniques such as compression, stripping massage, myofascial stretching and cross-fiber friction are included. Suggestions of draping options correspond to illustrations of draping techniques. Appendices include pain referral zones by region, Greek and Latin prefixes and suffixes, and a glossary of terms. Every "serious" massage therapist will want to have a copy of this on their shelf as a perpetual reference. It is so unique among all the massage books published TO DATE that massage instructors who have purchased a copy have said that this book could well become "THE" textbook in massage schools for illustrating effectively the integration of massage and anatomy. It has become our best-selling book since its release earlier this year, just by "word of mouth"!
