The legacy of Geoff Maitland and his seminal work, Vertebral
Manipulation, continues in this eighth edition, with Elly Hengeveld
and Kevin Banks leading an international team of experts who
demonstrate how to manage vertebral neuromusculoskeletal disorders
using the principles and practice of the Maitland Concept.
Together, they ensure the heart of the Concept beats on by
promoting collaborative decision-making with the patient at centre
and emphasizing the art and science of observation, listening,
palpation and movement skills. A key feature of the new edition
focuses on a more evidence-based and analytical view of the role of
mobilization and manipulation in clinical practice The authors have
written in a way that reflects their application of the Maitland
Concept and how they have integrated techniques in the light of
advancement in professional knowledge. Each chapter stands alone as
a 'master class'. The text is systematically arranged focusing on
detailed assessment, clinical reasoning and re-assessment to
determine the physical dysfunction and efficacy of manipulative
physiotherapy techniques, while also advocating continuous
communication and interaction. Techniques of passive mobilization
are also described, specifically designed around the individual
patient's condition. All the chapters are written from a clinical
perspective and review the evidence which informs how to deal with
and manage spinal and pelvic pain as they present to the
practitioner. Furthermore, each vertebral region (cervical,
thoracic, lumbar, sacroiliac/pelvic) is considered from the point
of view of best practice in analysing and hypothesising subjective
data, examination, treatment and management of spinal pain
conditions. Brand new to the eighth edition is the addition of a
companion website - Maitland's Manipulation eResources
(www.maitlandsresources.com) - providing access to a range of
valuable learning materials which include videos, MCQs, interactive
case studies, research links, and bonus chapters "Drawing on a wide
spectrum of literature and expert guest authors to explain the
reasoning behind treatment techniques this edition takes the reader
on a wonderful clinical journey way beyond the Maitland concept."
Reviewed by: Tobias Bremer Date: 24/07/2014 "This text would be an
excellent resource to any practising physiotherapist or health
professional dealing with spinal disorders. It would enhance the
manual skills and clinical reasoning of any therapist regardless of
their experience. It is concise, clear to follow and covers each
spinal section extensively with evidence-based practise and thought
stimulating case studies and examples throughout." Reviewed by:
