Description
The perfect companion to the two volumes of Clinical Application of Neuromuscular Techniques, this guide to case exercises helps readers
understand how to use neuromuscular techniques in specific clinical scenarios. It presents a series of 34 individual case histories,
differential diagnosis discussions, and questions cross-referenced to the page or section of the textbook where answers can be found.
Cases simulate the types of problems typically encountered in neuromuscular therapy practice, selected from a series of case histories
submitted by experienced NMT practitioners. This innovative resource emphasizes and promotes a multidisciplinary approach to practice,
pointing out when it may be appropriate to refer to other practitioners or explore an alternate course of action.
