Description
First published in 1964, Beard's Massage is a classic physical therapy massage text originally authored by Gertrude Beard, a pioneering
physical therapist in the 1920s who treated patients using soft tissue massage techniques that remain the basis of practice today.
Now
in its fifth edition, with a new title, this classic text has been expanded and updated throughout to provide you with an overview of
massage, a description of massage techniques, information on the benefits of massage, and specific techniques for a variety of conditions.
