very useful book for all physical therapists who search ways to treat trigger points and treat soft tissues.
A must-have for LMT's May 8, 2009

My daughter is a licensed massage therapist and was saving to purchase this set. She found them available at Amazon.com at a very reasonable price. This set is very highly recommended by massage schools nationwide, containing no-nonsense how-to's with direct instruction. My daughter used several techniques on her patients the first week she received her manuals, and provided great relief from their pain.
I guarantee if you mention this set to any LMT, they will be very familiar with it. It's a wonderful investment and will never become outdated. That is a guarantee by both schools and LMT's!

Excellent book. I have already been able to reduce/releive the pain for some of my hand therapy patients. Get more benefit from the book by taking some classes on Myofascial Trigger Point Release from a certified practitioner.

My daughter is going to school for Western Massage Therapy and Neuromuscular massge. She was needing to purchase the set of books. At her school, it was at least $56 more than purchasing them on line. She was able to have them with in a week for class, but saved her a lot of money to put toward other things for her studies.

Information in this book is unsurpassable. The research in this area is extensive. Good art and well laid out information. A truly necessary book in your massage profession or any profession dealing with soft tissue pain.
