Reviews
"This book would be a invaluable reference for any physical therapist wanting both consolidation and increased depth of knowledge of massage techniques. Some sections of the book will be of particular use to undergraduate students, postgraduate students and professionals, as they describe the theoretical underpinning and clinical reasoning for massage therapy. I recommend that physical therapists who work in clinical settings, hospitals, institutions and the other rehabilitation centres should read this book in order to enhance their clinical skills and to augment the efficacy of their treatments." ( International Journal of Therapy and Rehabilitation , October 2010)

Synopsis
Massage is a basic skill within physiotherapy, and one which requires a high standard of practical application. It is a skill which is increasingly being taken up by other health care and complementary therapy professionals. This new, third edition of Massage for Therapists is a timely and thorough update which continues the tradition of Margaret Hollis' hands-on approach. The book is designed to be a step-by-step guide to the theory and practical application of classical massage. Once mastered, these techniques may form the basis for a variety of modifications suitable for specific conditions. Massage for Therapists is split into three sections: an introduction to massage and preparation for giving a massage; the massage manipulations by area of the body; and some key modifications to the standard manipulations. In order to further enhance the practitioner's skill and to give the reader a grounding in some of the popular specialities, updated chapters on aromatherapy and massage in sport sit alongside new chapters which introduce myofascial release and shiatsu. Massage for Therapists will be of interest to student and qualified physiotherapists and sports therapists, as well as occupational therapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, nurses, complementary therapists and beauty therapists. - Practical, applied text - Thoroughly updated by subject experts - Illustrated throughout with photographs which support the explanations of the therapeutic application., This new, third edition of Massage for Therapists is a timely and thorough update, which continues the tradition of Margaret Hollis hands-on approach.

- r***r (2947)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.Rethinking Investing: A Very Short Guide to Very Long-Term Investing by Charles (#396183075510)
- e***_ (12)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseSeller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
