Text Develop the must-have knowledge your students need about basic joint structure and muscle action and their normal and pathologic functions. They’ll focus on the science behind muscle function and movement and how muscles groups together can contribute to function or dysfunction. This evidence- based approach prepares them to explore the principles of rehabilitation that facilitate movement, strength, and mobility. ƒ UPDATED! The most current terminology and scientific information ƒ Chapters that focus first on “typical” or “normal” and then on the “atypical” or “abnormal,” building the knowledge base necessary to provide effective interventions. ƒ Discussions of mal-alignment (postural deviations) interwoven throughout. ƒ Appendices at the end of Parts II, III, and IV that detail the muscles surrounding the joint and their attachments and innervations as well as a dermatome diagram of the specific area D igital Laboratory Manual This online, “hands-on” learning tool engages students with interactive features that promote mastery and understanding.
