This new review system is designed to help students prepare for and pass school-administered exams, state and local licensing exams, and the National Certification Exam administered by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB). Nearly 800 multiple-choice questions plus answer keys and rationales, as well as 40 labeling exercises and unique case-study/critical thinking questions, make up this comprehensive review. Mosby's Massage Therapy Review covers topics from four essential categories: Human Anatomy, Physiology, and Kinesiology; Clinical Pathology and Indications and Contraindications for Massage Application; Massage Therapy and Bodywork; and Professional Standards, Ethics, and Business Practices. A FREE CD-ROM offers even more practice and familiarizes the user with taking the exam in an electronic format.
Introduction - includes test-taking tips that are helpful when preparing for any type of exam
Mimics Certification Exam - practice tests include questions on the same four major subject areas and at the same percentage of coverage as found on the NCTMB Certification Exam
Easy format to work from - large size allows for better study sessions
Internal design is User-friendly layout, allowing the student plenty of room to jot down helpful notes during study sessions
Integration Questions - unique chapter (chapter 27) contains case-study/critical thinking questions that are useful for exams as well as real-life, professional massage therapy practice - these questions show how knowledge gained in educational programs is applied to daily use
Labeling Exercises - a section of labeling exercises reinforces anatomical knowledge in an effective way and also gives the student a break from straight multiple-choice questions
Practice Tests - two sets of 200-question practice tests included - tests are patterned after the certification exam, with answer keys that contain rationales and information about the type of question presented
Multiple Uses - can be used as a study guide for the certification exam or other exams such as mid-terms or finals. Can also be used as a study aid for the two Fritz textbooks
Sandy Fritz - is a best-selling, well-respected Mosby author.
CD-ROM FEATURES:
Realistic Testing - provides a realistic test-taking experience for the massage therapy student, with the added benefit that the NCBTMB exam is given electronically as well
Complete - features all of the multiple-choice questions that are included in the book except for the integration questions from chapter 27
Random - CD contains a randomization feature so that questions never appear in the same order for practice tests, nor are they grouped by content area. The student takes a different test with every use of the CD
Customization - student can customize his or her own test, with the option to emphasize areas of weakness
Automatic Electronic Grading - tests are automatically graded as soon as they are completed, allowing the student to know his or her score immediately.
