Review:

The availability and selection of massage therapy books is very limited. A text written as outlined will be beneficial not only to the field of massage therapy, but will contribute to the educational process of massage therapists everywhere - much needed.

Clearly written, easy to follow and very thorough, the book will a valuable companion to students and practitioners."
