Well organized and clearly explained chapters

There aren't many continuing ed classes on Modalities so this book is the next best thing. It gives the basics which the clinician needs for hands on work. Thank you!

Hand Therapist

Excellent up to date information, easy to follow, helps clinical reasoning skills - not just a cook-book for treatment.

A must for independent therapists

This book is a dream come true for OTs who work independently or whose work environments are so busy there's little time for asking questions. This book is thorough, easy to read and answered a LOT of my modality questions. I'd recommmend it for any OT working in physical rehab.
