Exploring treatment options for foot and ankle conditions, this manual
therapy textbook looks at bunions, ankle strain, Achilles tendon issues,
plantar fasciitis, fractures and sport specific injuries amongst others.
Gyer and Michael, along with Dr Kunasingam, examine common
misconceptions about foot and ankle conditions and provide explanations
on how to assess and diagnose patients. The book also presents a wide
treatment selection for manual therapists such as orthotics, taping,
soft tissue and joint techniques and common rehabilitation options, with
advice on when to refer patients for surgery.
By concentrating on the foot and ankle in specific detail, Osteopathic
and Chiropractic Techniques for the Foot and Ankle is an invaluable
resource for all bodywork practitioners.
