Synopsis

Organized into three parts, the book begins with a full discussion of dynamic systems theory and the theoretical foundations of Positional Release. Examination, evaluation, treatment intervention, and patient response are also discussed. With more than 200illustrations, the second part provides step-by-step instructions for muscular, joint, and isometric applications of the technique. These excellent illustrations of each muscle and photographs demonstrating the technique enhance the explanation for each release. Finally, relevant case studies are included that allow you to see how the technique can be applied in practice.

This is the ideal guide for all practitioners who wish to integrate Positional Release technique into their clinical practice in order to provide successful holistic intervention for their clients.

* Provides a holistic approach to evaluation and treatment with the integration of dynamic systems theory
* Introduces an easy-to-learn indirect treatment approach that provides a nonforceful alternative to patient care
* Includes practical step-by-step instructions to help you take the techniques from theory to practice
