Motor Control:
Theory and Practical Applications
Second Edition
Anne Shumway-Cook, PT, PhD
Marjorie Woollacott, PhD
Here is the ONE text that bridges the gap between current motor control theory and research, and its application to clinical practice. Motor Control prepares therapists to examine and treat patients who have problems related to balance, mobility and upper extremity function, based on the best available evidence supporting the clinical practice. A systems theory of motor control and a clinical or "task-oriented" approach to examination and intervention is presented.
The perfect BALANCE of features:
A functional approach, provides a practical model of rehabilitation
Specific examples of theoretical models apply theories to clinical practice
Numerous drawings, charts, tables and photographs illustrate postural control and functional mobility
New features provide added FUNCTION:
Chapter 6 summarizes factors affecting the control of movement, and the types of patients likely to have these impairments
Assessment and intervention techniques are addressed from an occupational therapy and physical therapy perspective
Laboratory activities and case studies apply concepts to patients with different diagnoses
