Full Description
Manual therapy textbook. As one of the primary texts recognised by the Mulligan Concept Teacher Association, the 7th edition is designed to be used along-side the accredited training courses on Mulligan Concept Upper Quarter(cervical thoracic and upper limb),Lower Quarter (lumbar spine and lower limb) and Advanced courses. 'Manual Therapy NAGS, SNAGS PRP's etc' 7th edition includes Brian's latest C0-3 technique for the upper cervical spine restrictions and headaches. This revision and reprint of the 7th edition reinstalls the ankle and cervical techniques omitted in the first print and updates the referencing. Still written in Brian's own unique colloquial style, the 7th edition is easy to read, often humorous and is a key reference for any musculoskeletal therapist working clinically today.
