Massage for Therapists is split into three sections: an
introduction to massage and preparation for giving a massage; the
massage manipulations by area of the body; and some key
modifications to the standard manipulations. In order to further
enhance the practitioner's skill and to give the reader a grounding
in some of the popular specialities, updated chapters on
aromatherapy and massage in sport sit alongside new chapters which
introduce myofascial release and shiatsu.
Massage for Therapists will be of interest to student and
qualified physiotherapists and sports therapists, as well as
occupational therapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, nurses,
complementary therapists and beauty therapists.
• Practical, applied text
