This book has been designed and developed to help the reader to understand and acquire the palpatory skills which are the foundation of all effective manual therapy assessments and treatment. Subtlety and sensitivity of touch and the accurate interpretation of palpatory tests are required from the start of training in any of the manual therapy professions. A CD-ROM with video demonstrations and audio explanations comes with the book.
