پاتوفیزیولوژی برای ماساژدرمانگران؛ رویکرد عملکردی

How do diseases and disorders affect the design of massage treatment plans? What precautions are needed? When is massage contraindicated? Develop the knowledge you need to evaluate a client based on how diseases and disorders affect the systems of the body and the critical-thinking skills to apply that knowledge in practice. “A ‘functional approach’ to pathophysiology fosters understanding of the inter-relationship between body systems and human function. Clients are concerned about how a disorder affects their quality of life and ability to function. My goal for this book is to guide readers to use clinical reasoning to create client-specific, outcome-based massage treatment plans from this vital information—signs, symptoms, diagnosis, and client functional concerns.”—Virginia S. Cowen, PhD, LMT, RYT, CSCS
