The book discusses theories and physiology relevant to the manual treatment of chronic pain, especially as it regards the soft tissues of the lower body.

Review
"I received Vol 2 Friday (Sept 20), skimmed it immediately and started reading straight through Sat. What a wealth of information, definitely worth the wait. Thanks so much for your work; excellent program and great books."NMT PRACTITIONER
indeed this is - a large format hardback of almost 600 pages, referenced to the hilt and superbly illustrated with a mixture of line drawings and photographs, and broken up with boxes and charts. It is actually almost too much to take in."CAM October 2002
