Great text, very interesting

I used this book to help study for the Physiotherapy Chiropractic Boards. It served as a great foundation and helped me to know when to apply ultrasound, Russian, etc. It shows contraindications and indications. I also found the following an excellent source for the Physiotherapy Boards.National Board of Chiropractic Physiotherapy Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers isbn is 0974328758.This study guide had great questions for review and really tested my knowledge thoroughly to help me pass this portion of the boards the first time. Both these books are necessities for the physiotherapy Chirorpractic Boards.

Excellent Introductory Text

This book was required for the Physical Therapy course at my Chiropractic college. I found it easy to read and informative. One of its strongest points is the redundancy of information. Though some might not agree, the fact that the authors reintroduced the same information in different contexts throughout the book reinforced learning without constant backtracking.An excellent text for the library of any helth professional interested in PT and a good primer for those who refer patients out.
