Positional release techniques

Positional Release Techniques continues to be the essential resource for those who want to learn and use this manual approach to safely manage pain and dysfunction in humans (and animals). As well as a structural revision, this fourth edition includes new illustrations and chapters with videos and an image bank on a companion website. The book explores the principles and modalities of the different forms of positional release techniques and their application, ranging from the original strain/counterstrain method to various applications in physical therapy, such as McKenzie’s exercise protocols and kinesio-taping methods that ‘unload’ tissues. In addition to a series of problem-solving clinical descriptions supported by photos of assessment and treatment methods, practical exercises are included which examine PRT methodologies and the mechanics of their use.
