A Customer said great book for the clinician. I use this book alot in the clinic (outpatient PT). The strain/counterstrain techniques are illustrated and very effective. Alot of theory, but lots of practical applications with muscle energy, strain/counterstrain, and even tendon/ligament therapy. Highly recommend it!
