Revised and updated: a fresh new look to an established best-seller--an essential tool for physical therapists that offers unique insights into the versatile and highly effective technique of muscle energy techniques. Muscle Energy Techniques is a must-have for any student or practitioner of physical therapy, osteopathy, physiotherapy, chiropractic, or massage therapy. This practical guide--packed with full-color photographs and illustrations--fully explains the theory and practice of a range of muscle energy techniques. The book is broken in 5 parts. In part I, John Gibbons examines the theory and principles behind muscle energy techniques, with chapters that explain the technique, muscle imbalances, myofascial slings, and core muscle relationships. Parts II to IV break down the technique by body area--upper body, lower body, trunk, and pelvis--with clear descriptive explanations of the techniques. Accompanied by color photographs with directional arrows, each shows the practitioner how to maximize treatment benefits. Clear drawings allow the reader to understand the basic anatomy of each muscle. A concluding part V shows two applications of muscle energy techniques: self-lengthening techniques for the shoulder complex and muscle weakness testing of the gluteals.

A comprehensive guide to understanding the complexities of the shoulder and treating shoulder injury and pain The area of the body we commonly refer to as "the shoulder" is in fact a complex of interconnected systems--bones, tendons, muscle, and joints that together work to move our arms, hands, and fingers. Because the shoulder must trade stability for mobility, it is also one of the weakest joints of the body, which explains why it is one of the most common areas of physical pain; injury located in the shoulder can affect areas throughout the entire body. The Vital Shoulder Complex is designed for anyone interested in understanding, treating, and healing shoulder-related pain. Author and renowned bodyworker John Gibbons explains and illustrates the dynamics of the shoulder complex in ways that are accessible and enlightening. The theory and principles described in this book can assist physical therapists in formulating effective treatment protocols towards quick rehabilitation for their patients. These include: * Differential diagnosis of shoulder pathology * The relationship of the pelvis, the SI joint, and the gluteals to the shoulder complex * Pathologies of the shoulder and cervical spine * Special tests associated with the shoulder complex * Rehabilitation and exercise protocols for the shoulder complex

This book is a must have for any physical therapist involved in the treatment of patients, athletes, or indeed anyone likely to come into contract with a range of sporting injuries including coaches, personal trainers and sporting enthusiasts. The author takes the reader on an educational journey through the entire taping process; from marking an area of dysfunction to preparing and cutting tape and application with variants shown for special problems. Opening with the principles and benefits of the Kinesiology taping method, explaining what it is and when and why you would apply it, the book then covers the correct application of tape to treat each individual area of pain and dysfunction. Through the use of pictorial demonstrations, including examples of injuries common to each area of pain and the subsequent variations in taping applications, the reader is clearly presented with over 50 special areas of pain, each identified through individual artistic illustrations. The author has the ability to explain this fascination, yet not widely understood, subject in a relatively simplistic way, helping every reader develop the ability to apply these phenomenal techniques, with confidence in any setting.
