Biased

Being a bit biased because I know the author and attend/ed her school, I can truthfully say her book leaves nothing out. It covers basics of therapeutic bodywork all the way up to actual helpful techniques for working with athletes. Contraindications, assessment techniques, rehab, case studies, it's all here. There are plenty of pictures demonstrating techniques and the muscles that are being addressed. There's even a video, that accompanies the book, to visually demonstrate even more, some of the techniques discussed. If I could say anything negative about the book I'd say 'overkill'. Sandy has strived to leave absolutely nothing out. Kudos, Mrs Fritz! James Nichols NCTMB
