Description
Complementary Therapies for Physical Therapy: A Clinical Decision-Making Approach is unique in that it provides a comprehensive overview plus detailed coverage of the therapies most relevant to rehabilitation. The largest section of the book covers Manual Body-Based Therapies, which (arguably) are a natural extension of established physical and occupational therapy interventions. This section includes Rolfing, Feldenkrais Method, Alexander Technique, Craniosacral Therapy, Pilates, Trager, and Shiatsu. Movement therapies which are not hands-on (Yoga and Tai Chi) are covered in another section. Separate chapters are devoted to Qi Gong and Magnets, which many therapists use along with more traditional physical agents.
- PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) boxes summarize key information and save you time by providing a method for performing quick and accurate literature searches.
- Realistic case scenarios show you how various CAM modalities can be incorporated into treatment for therapeutic benefit.
- The use of the clinical decision-making model prepares you to implement critical-thinking skills across other CAM treatments.
- Well-referenced content with a focus on literature ensures that content is up-to-date and evidence-based to provide you with the tools you need to search additional areas and keep current with new literature in this constantly changing field.
- An emphasis on therapies most relevant to rehabilitation ensures you get the information you need to incorporate CAM into your practice.
