Featuring more than 250 photographs and 50 anatomical drawings,
"Deep Tissue Massage "is the standard guide to the essentials of
touch, biomechanics, and positioning options for a multitude of
strategies to treat all major conditions encountered in a bodywork
practice.
The book is divided into three sections. "Fundamentals" covers
basic skills of palpation, explaining the deeper layers of the body
and presenting detailed instruction on working with these layers to
release tension. This section gives clear information on the proper
use of knuckles, fist, forearms, and elbows in preventing injury to
the therapist. "Strategies" offers more precise protocols and
treatment plans for the entire body with emphasis on client
positioning options to stretch muscles rather than just kneading
tissues. "Caveats" details areas in which the practitioner needs to
exercise caution.
"Deep Tissue Massage "presents a wealth of information in a way the
therapist can immediately utilize. This new edition has been
thoroughly revised and includes a preface to the new edition, a
foreword, an index, a Suggested Reading list, and extended sections
on integrating deep-tissue massage into bodywork practice and the
psychology of treating injuries.
