Joint Range of Motion and Muscle Length Testing 4th Edition

Description:

Guidelines to range of motion and muscle length testing cover techniques including goniometric measurement as well as measurements using inclinometers, tape measures, and smartphone apps.

More than 600 full-color photos and drawings demonstrate various techniques, anatomy, and landmarks for each joint.

Anatomical landmarks provide a fast visual reference showing exactly where to place measuring devices.

Clear template for techniques allows you to quickly and easily identify the information you need.

Chapters on length testing make it easy to locate information on measuring each of the upper and lower extremities as well as the head, neck, and trunk.
