Mosby Movement System Impairment Syndromes of the Extremities, Cervical and Thoracic Spines

What an amazing book, Shirley Sahrmann is a world leader in the examination and treatment of movement dysfunction, great book, has alot and I mean a lot of knowledge within! shows you how to examine and then treat any movement dysfucntion you might encounter, with the most up to date references and knowledge, great book.

Very good information

Ottimo testo, la base di ogni terapista. Completo di tutta la valutazione delle disfunzioni del movimento di cervicale, toracica, ginocchio,piede, gomito, mano. Purtroppo mancano le valutazioni fondamentali ovvero lombare, spalla, e anca, presenti nel vecchio libro, che per altro allo stato attuale andrebbe aggiornato.La Sahrmann (e autori) con questo testo insegnano le basi della fisioterapia, basata sulle evidenze, per questo ciò che viene riportato non è sindacabile e fa pensare al perché non ci avevi pensato prima.Consigliato a tutti i fisioterapisti sia neolaureati che con esperienza.

This book is not as good as her previous one. Although the photos are in colour, there aren't that many.It's not as organized as the first book; I had to constantly search the material to find the solution to thediagnosed problem. But the solution is not that good, i.e., she always talks about movement patterns that cause theseimpairements, but how about scar/fibroused tissue that simply wont let go until it is manually broken down.Most people need better functional exercise and deep tissue work to break-up fibroused tissue, not silly "rocking" exercises.The other reason for its lack of improvement is it has no information on back or hip pain, and limited information on shoulder dysfunction.My advice - Dont bother with this one. Get her first book instead.

Per me è uno dei libri migliori di fisioterapia visti i concetti semplici basati sulla biomeccanica.Mi è servito moltissimo per colmare alcune mie lacune.
