About this title

Synopsis

Completely revised and updated, the Third Edition offers a student-friendly approach to muscle assessment, presenting the principles and methodology of assessing both joint range of motion (ROM)/goniometry and manual muscle strength for the head, neck, trunk, and extremities. Each chapter is devoted to a separate anatomical region and provides knowledge of pertinent surface anatomy and deep anatomy. Excellent photography and illustrations enhance comprehension of techniques and serve as a self-learning tool.

Review

"Each chapter is organized in a consistent manner, which makes it easy for readers to reference a specific topic. Video clips are available online showing different assessment techniques."
"Overall, this is a well referenced, organized, and welcome update of a book that was last published 13 years ago."
