Reviews

A superb collection of valuable information regarding the use of HVLAT Manipulations for any Manual Therapist, regardless of background or school of thought. This book would make a remarkable addition to anyone's library who wishes to further their understanding and performance of the techniques they are utilizing. -- Cody Phillips, PTA Director of Social Networking at American Musculoskeletal Institute This book is an essential buy for undergraduate and postgraduate physiotherapists, osteopaths and chiropractors looking to develop their manual therapy skills. I have attended the authors' Chiropractic and Osteopathic Manipulation course, and the book complements it perfectly with clear illustrations and descriptions of the techniques they taught, along with enhanced theoretical knowledge to enable their safe and effective application. I will certainly be using the book to facilitate my continued clinical practice. -- Joe Lewis BSc MCSP HCPC, Premier League Football Physiotherapist
