MUST BUY FOR PHYSICAL THERAPISTS 2010-02-04

By F. Chang (IL)

Dr. Shirley Sahrmann is really a great physical therapist, teacher, clinician and researcher. Her concepts are based on understanding of biomechanics and motor control. This is the real deal. Understanding the movement system will help diagnose and treat your patients better. it is strongly recommended that you also attend her seminars to better integrate what you have learned into practice. Her treatment is more compatible with orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions as well as a therapist that is willing to spend time on his/her patients.

great book, great service! 2010-01-30

By Mitzi Hazard (Sequim, WA, US)

The book arrived very quickly and it was in great condition. I would use this company again when I have textbook needs. It's nice to have a transaction go as well or better than expected!!

Excellent, but.. 2009-06-27

By Brenda Messling (Fayetteville, AR USA)

This is a great book. The way it is arranged and the information presented is all excellent. If you are interested in a book that will help you diagnose your clients movement problems this may be perfect for you. As a massage therapist however I was slightly put out that there were no manual treatment options discussed for each impairment. Exercise and postural correction are the treatment of choice in this book. A body worker should be able to add their own expertise to the exercises and life style changes and come up with a great combination of manual treatment with things the client can do on their own.

Putting it all together 2009-03-07

I have been a physio for over 25 years and this text really puts it together and adds a lot of substance to the motor control theories. An excellent text..
