Description

A Clinicians Guide to Myofascial Pain in the Canine Patient is an essential resource for anyone who is interested in treating pain in their respective practices. For the veterinarian who spent only a few weeks in college learning about the musculoskeletal system and wants to understand it better and treat their patients more effectively, for the veterinary dentist, who is struggling to help patients with temporomandibular joint dysfunction, or the physical therapist who feels like massage isn’t quite cutting it, or for the chiropractor who can’t understand why their adjustment isn’t holding and the patient is still suffering. No one has time in their busy offices to lug out an enormous textbook and start paging through it for 15 minutes while their patient and client sit waiting. This has been designed as a quick reference text for those practitioners that have a patient presenting with a myofascial pain syndrome and need to quickly recap what muscles can be causing it, where those trigger points are, how to treat it and what to do post treatment. 146 p.

This book is very thorough and also easy to read. I found it really helped me understand trigger point therapy and how to use it effectively in my patients.

This should absolutely be part of your library! I do not go one day without working on this system and I do not feel optimal improvement could happen without awareness of myofascial pain. This is by far one of the most important aspects of physiotherapy, physical rehabilitation and physical therapy (depending on what you affiliate with) and should not be overlooked!!!

I would recommend this book for veterinarians or techs doing any kind of massage, acupuncture, rehab therapy, or pain management for dogs.
