Riassunto

This highly illustrated text is the only book to include manipulation and mobilization techniques for both spine and extremity. This edition includes a new title that reflects the focus on evidence- based practice as well as more information on the spine, most notably with regard to joint play. Clearly labeled photos show the direction of force in techniques. A companion DVD offers video demonstrating how to perform the major procedures covered in the text.

• Description of joint mobilization, along with pictures, make procedures easy to understand and then perform.
• Unique focus on spine and extremities provides learners with information all in one place.
• Contraindications/precautions and indications included for each joint mobilization help to apply mobilizations to actual clinical situations.

• Evidence-based introductions begin each chapter to provide the latest research and rationalization for specific procedures.
• New information on the examination of joint play, especially in reference to the spine, provides the latest information available.
• Clearly labeled photos show the direction of force on the photographs that show the techniques.
• More information on osteokinematic and arthrokinematic motion, and degrees of freedom, provides perspective on the body planes.
• Better definitions of mobilization and manipulation.
• In the cervical spine chapter, additional mobilization techniques, such as Paris cervical gliding, have been added.
• Grade V (thrust) techniques have been added to the spine chapters
• More muscle energy techniques added to spine chapters
• Companion CD-ROM includes videos of manipulation and mobilization techniques covered in the text.
