Description

A volume in the Contemporary Perspectives in Rehabilitation Series; edited by Steven L. Wolf, PhD, PT, FAPTA. Here's a current, concise, and evidence-based approach to the selection, application, and biophysical effects of therapeutic modalities in a case-based format with a wealth of photographs and figures. The 5th Edition builds and expands on the strengths of previous editions and their focus on expanding and strengthening clinical decision-making skills through a hands-on, problem-solving approach.
