Whether you are a student or a professional, the detailed instruction and numerous photos will help you gain proficiency and confidence in applying these techniques.
Divided into three types—passive, active-assisted, and active—this edition provides step-by-step descriptions for each type, along with new content on using STR to deactivate trigger points. It includes over 150 new photographs and 21 new anatomical illustrations to enhance understanding. Guiding arrows overlaid on photos guide the direction of pressure application, while trigger points found in 21 muscles are illustrated. Additionally, new sections cover active STR application to gluteals, trapezius, scalenes, rhomboid, and pectoral muscles. Passive STR application to shoulder adductors is also covered.
Case studies showcase how STR was successfully used with four clients with diverse problems, providing real-world examples of its effectiveness. Complementing each technique, information on key holds, moves, and stances for various muscles is provided, along with handy reference charts indicating the appropriate clients and situations for each technique.
The full-color photos throughout the book vividly depict the techniques and their application, making it an invaluable resource for practitioners seeking to enhance their skills in soft tissue release.
