Selected as a Doody's Core Title for 2022! One of the most
rewarding and helpful areas of primary care medicine is the
opportunity to relieve the suffering of a patient in pain. Using a
hands-on intervention can provide pain relief to the patient and
professional satisfaction to the clinician. Manual Medicine offers
primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician
assistants the practical, hands-on guidance needed to accurately
diagnose and provide initial management of commonly seen
musculoskeletal problems. Dr. Frank Domino, along with physical
therapists Steve Messineo and Mark Powicki, walk you step by step
through the approach to a clinical problem (such as back pain or
knee pain) and treatment. These easy-to-use maneuvers provide
initial treatment that reduces suffering. Starts with a patient's
complaint (for example, low back pain), guiding you through the
process of obtaining patient history, a brief functional physical
exam, and diagnosing the problem. Equips you to use a set of
physical maneuvers to provide immediate relief while a more
detailed treatment plan can be developed - all clearly demonstrated
both in print and in accompanying videos. Helps you learn ideally
suited techniques (such as muscle energy techniques, myofascial
release, and positional release (strain-counterstrain) that are
extremely low risk and are far safer than other care options such
as opioids or NSAIDs. Identifies specific dysfunctions based upon
patterns of patient complains and physical exam findings, covering
head and neck, upper back, upper extremities, lower back, hips,
lower extremities, and non-musculoskeletal complaints with muscular
etiologies. Includes patient resources and sample billing and
coding notes in each treatment chapter. Enrich Your eBook Reading
