What they said!October 26, 2008 I was so pleased to finally find a book that gave me the detail I'd been looking for! This is a fantastic book, brilliantly illustrated and packed with relevant and specific information. Its a weighty subject that requires a high level of understanding in order to achieve the desired results, and it is clear that the authors know their onions! A MUST for all sports massage therapists. We are using it as our main text in class.

We all need a "bible" to refer to in our chosen professions, well this is mine. As a Personal Trainer and Sports Therapist i find the information in this book to be invaluable. Well laid out and easy to use makes it a perfect companion for any therapist.

Having owned this publication for over a year it has proved invaluable both as a knowledge base and referance tool in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous sports injuries.The text and graphics are exellent, although the rehab section could be expanded and made user friendly.All in all essential reading.
If you have the cash, buy the book.October 4, 2001 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is an extremely comprehensive read. It covers the complete range of sports injuries and is packed with clear and helpful photographs and colour illustrations. The book is laid out sensibly by body part and a summary is given at the start of each chapter with a labelled photo of possible injury sites so you can go straight to the problem area. I would hope a copy of this is on the bookshelf of every physio and sports therapist!
