>>> CLINICAL ASSESSMENT AND TREATMENT TECHNIQUES FOR THE LOWER EXTREMITY
This
book was written in order to provide both students and teachers of Manual
Therapy with access to a comprehensive source detailing assessment and treatment
techniques for the lower limb.
The years we have dedicated to this book have seen tremendous advances in
functional anatomy, biomechanics and rehabilitation. We have strived to incorporate
the most recent research in order to make the techniques presented as contemporary
as possible.
The text includes
• 560 pages with detailed assessment and treatment techniques for both basic and advanced levels of manual therapy, including grade V mobilisations.• Almost 800 photographs illustrating the text.
• Pathology with related photographs, including lymphoedema, leg length discrepancy, tendon ruptures, bursal infection, neurological wasting, osteoarthritis, dislocations, congenital deformities, osteophytes, and others.
• Surface anatomy and bony anatomy.
• Biomechanical approach.
• Gait analysis.
Sample Page:
Passive Osteokinematic
Test/ Inversion
Subtalar Joint Assesment
Joint: Subtalar joint
Technique: Passive Osteokinematic
Test/ Inversion Patient: Supine, lower leg supported on a towel with
the foot unsupported over the edge of the table.
Therapist: Standing at the end of the table, facing the patient.
Palpation: Using the thenar eminence of the hand, palpate the medial
apsect of the neck of the talus. Using the thenar eminence of the other hand,
palpate the lateral aspect of the calcaneus, at the anterior subtalar joint
line.
Assessment: Stabilise the talus. Passively invert the calcaneus about
the appropriate axis. Note the quality and quantity of motion and the end
feel. Compare with the opposite extremity.
