Book Reviews of Basic Clinical Massage Therapy: Integrating Anatomy and Treatment (LWW Massage Therapy and Bodywork Educational Series)
Book Review: A RNs thoughts on anatomy/massage technique pictures
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a review of the earlier edition but the information here applies to this book as well.
The best of many, many books I have used for physical therapy approach to major medical problems. This is the most workable book with, by far, the best medical illustrations for the professional and the amateur alike. I have used Dr. Janet Travell's books, which are the benchmark for all musculo-skeletal manuals, but this is the book I use to put massage, trigger point, and any other therapies to use. It is the best anatomy book I have ever used, in school or on the job. It is a very safe book. The incredible artwork defining the location of muscles is the most helpful aspect of this book. Also, it is a super value for a manual of this quality.
I don't agree with another review saying this book is not for the novice. I feel the ease of understanding from the terrific pictures makes it so much easier than most books. You can follow the 'feel' of a muscle much easier when you are guided with anatomical details.
