Functional Neurology utilizes our understanding of how the nervous
system works in the treatment of a variety of clinical conditions.
Fuctional Neurology for Practitioners of Manual Medicine takes the
reader from the embryonic beginnings of the nervous system, through
the biochemistry of receptor activation and on to the functional
systems of the nervous system. Both the student and the clinician
will find this text a valuable source of information and clinical
guidance in the application of detailed neurological principles to
their practice. Concepts, relationships and scientific mechanisms
of the nervous system function are covered, and this aids the
practitioner in developing their clinical approach to a wide
variety of patient presentations. This text explores the
neurological impact of the application of functional neurological
principles, using a detailed clinical approach supported by
clinical case studies. The text is fully referenced, which allows
the reader to immediately apply the concepts to practice
situations. New for this edition are new chapters on pain
(including headache) and theoretical evidence, plus extensive
electronic resources supporting the text. "Overall this text would
be an excellent resource to any practising physiotherapist or
health professional within musculoskeletal and orthopaedics from
the new graduate to the experienced clinician. It is concise, clear
to follow and covers each subject extensively with evidence-based
practise to accompany manual techniques. A must have for enhancing
clinical practise." Reviewed by: Tracy Ward, MCSP, BSc (HONS), MSc,
