520 1 $a"This text offers a unique source of integrated information written specifically for massage therapists." "'Non-specific' backache causes over 90% of all backaches and costs the US economy an estimated $90 billion annually! There is no actual pathology (arthritis or disc disease, for example) associated with this form of backache, and massage therapy and soft tissue and exercise methods of treatment have been shown by recent research to be the most effective way of treating - and preventing - this widespread problem." "The background to the evolution of 'non-specific' backache is described in detail, as are assessment and treatment methods ideal for use in combination with massage therapy deriving from physical therapy, osteopathic and chiropractic sources." "These methods are described individually and are then integrated into a detailed description of a massage session (written by master massage instructor and author, Sandy Fritz) focusing on the person with backache." "What makes this text unusual is the care that has been taken to consider the needs of the massage therapist, who previously may have had to adapt her own methodology from descriptions aimed at other health care professionals (such as physical therapists or chiropractors)." "The book is supplemented by a DVD containing the full text plus videoclips demonstrating the palpation and treatment methods."--Jacket.
