The book provides an in-depth understanding of the principles of therapeutic massage and helps you develop the ability to reason effectively and make informed decisions — from assessing problems and planning treatment to mastering massage protocols and techniques. Hundreds of photographs demonstrate massage techniques step by step, and case studies allow you to apply concepts to real-world situations. Featuring dozens of online "how-to" videos, this resource from massage therapy experts Sandy and Luke Fritz is your text of choice.
