Content
Exercise Therapy in the Management of Musculoskeletal Disorders covers the fundamentals of using exercise as a treatment modality. It evaluates the evidence, and offers practical ideas for the use of exercise therapy in the management of musculoskeletal disease in different areas of the body and for differing pathologies, with emphasis on all patient groups. The first section provides an introduction to exercise as a modality for management of musculoskeletal disease, reviews the importance of measurement and assessment, and the importance of exercise therapy in physiotherapy. Section two covers specific areas of the body, discussing general concepts and application to specific syndromes commonly seen by physiotherapists in a wide range of patients. The third section examines the role of exercise therapy in management of musculoskeletal disease in special populations, and includes questions for reflection. Exercise Therapy in the Management of Musculoskeletal Disorders will be invaluable to undergraduate and qualified physiotherapists who are designing rehabilitation programmes for patients with musculoskeletal disorders, and to students and practitioners of sports science.

The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages
