Postural Correction (Hands-On Guides for Therapists)

undefined

Review ------ "An ideal instruction reference for students, therapists, and the non-spet reader with an interest in postural correction issues. "Postural Correction" is as informative and educational as it is thoroughly 'user friendly' in content, tone, organization and presentation. "Postural Correction" is very highly recommended for professional, community, and academic library /Medicine instructional reference collections." --The Midwest Book Review "Therapists will use different techniques for different clients and this book helps guide them through the possibilities. It also helps therapists think outside the box and approach clients in a different way, if one technique is not working. The photographs are very helpful... Having a book like this will help therapists take the skills they already have and apply some new theory and techniques to help their clients. The book is written at an appropriate level, not going into too much scientific detail that might be beyond the needs of some massage therapists. Yet, it still challenges therapists to approach their s differently." --Doody's Book Review About the Author ---------------- Jane Johnson, MSc, is a chartered physiotherapist and sport massage therapist specializing in occupational .
