Product Description

Whether for sporting competition, work, or the maintenance of posture, everyone needs muscles that are strong, supple, and in balance. Regular manipulation of the soft tissues plays an essential role in maintaining healthy muscles. Soft Tissue Release will transform any treatment, allowing specific problems to be addressed rapidly and effectively.

This essential guide is a compact yet comprehensive source of information for the manual therapist and will unlock the secrets of soft tissue release (STR).

Soft Tissue Release is divided into eight parts, introducing STR and then covering the technique, the lower and upper limbs, the trunk, and the neck. Pre- and post- event treatment and self-treatment are also clearly explained.
