Product Description

A groundbreaking approach to neural mobilization, this one-of-a-kind resource draws on the established Maitland movement diagram to present a completely new system for mobilization of the neural and musculoskeletal systems. The text guides readers through the complex subject of neurodynamics and the basic mechanisms in movement of the nervous system, systematically linking causal mechanisms to diagnosis and treatment of pain and common musculoskeletal problems. This new progressional method is ideal for diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders with neural involvement such as spinal and peripheral (extremity) disorders, the nerve root, dura and peripheral nerve.

Cinical Neurodynamics Just what you need
I now know why this book was sold out at the International Conference on Movement Dysfunction.

Michael Shacklock has put to gather an excellent book. From the moment you start to read you find that it progresses in a logical format. I like the fact it goes back in history and leads you through to present day. The book is well referenced at the end of each section.

I found this easy read and read it from cover to cover. It gives you an overview, followed up with more in depth insight and then gives examples through out the book. The pictures and diagrams are clear and add clarity to this work.

Any bad points well it took 10 min to get the CD out of its cover, but this has real time U/S images of nerves and how they slide and glide.

A must for all manual therapists.
