Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapy: From Art to Evidence First Edition

Wise did a good job of giving a 30,000 ft. view of the scope and history of manual therapy. Rather than having an excessive number of books for Greenman, Kaltenborn, Mulligan, etc..., all the highlights and treatments have been included in this text. Also does a great job of showing what the literature supports, and what popular treatments still need to be studied, hints the "from art to evidence". Would recommend for all 2nd year DPT students and clinicians.*This text goes over some anatomical structures and bony contours, however the reader is expected to have a firm grasp on Anatomy prior to reading.

I like this book more for the history of manual therapy and the intro and comparison of the various schools of thought. As a technique book, nothing really special, nothing negative. I was hesitant at first for the book, initially thinking I was going to return it after skimming through it, but it ended up being a nice book and reference.

good condition, fast delivery, meets needs for school

Shipped promptly and came as expected. This is a great book for manual techniques, I reference it all the time for manual skills and different techniques.

This text is a must for all orthopedic physical therapist. I liked it so much I bought 3 more so my staff could each have one at home. I am also using it to educate my physical therapy interns. A lot of information. Great text book!

If you like to read, keep yourself updated, and want to dig further, is an excellent book. Nice photos, lots of color and useful information in relation to manual therapy.

A great resource for any new grad or experienced physical therapist!

Great.
