Synopses & Reviews

Book News Annotation:

Updates the 1983 edition to mark the transition of the trigger point concept from a syndrome of unknown etiology to an experimentally established neuromuscular disease entity. Also addresses the close interaction between myofascial trigger points and articular dysfunctions at nearly every point examined. Covers pain in the head and neck; upper back, shoulder, and arms; forearms and hands; and torso. Assumes readers to be health care professionals or students who are well trained, or intend to be, in muscle anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, necessary palpitation skills, and recognizing and resolving perpetuating factors. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews@booknews.com)

Synopsis:

This Second Edition presents introductory general information on all trigger points and also detailed descriptions of single muscle syndromes for the upper half of the body. It includes 107 new drawings, a number of trigger point release techniques in addition to spray and stretch, and a new chapter on intercostal muscles and diaphragm.

Matthew Perrello, November 3, 2008 (view all comments by Matthew Perrello)
One of the classics, of course. A must on the shelf for any one serious about bodywork.

What I'd like to know, is this volume the upper extremities ONLY, with the lower covered in another volume; or is this the entire retinue? Are both subjects available as a set?

Thanks!
