Description and Table of Contents

Description

This edition presents both the "what" and the "how to" in education and therapy. The text's practical approach to therapeutic exercise and neuromuscular education or re-education includes detailed analyses of patterns of facilitation, descriptions of the repertoire of techniques, and illustrations depicting individual patterns and total patterns of movement. Copiously illustrated throughout, it covers patterns pertaining to specific areas of the body as well as mat activities that are used to promote full-body functioning.
