 - Highly recommendedFor clinicians who are looking to obtain immediate clinical results this text will afford you the opportunity to do just that. A great reference to have in any clinic. This book has improved my knowledge about common locations for trigger points and has enhanced my understanding of how to go about properly identifying, treating, and preventing recurrence of myofascial pain. Rating:  - Not advisable for massage students!Unless you are a doctor, chiropractor, or clinician, this book is NOT for you. Especially if you are a student of massage therapy. The blocky, often illegible graphics, along with extremely compacted information will confuse rather than help someone who is new to trigger point and myofascial therapy. The compact and highly technical information is only good if you have a really strong background in medical terminology. Students, I suggest looking for a different book. You will also find that the pages in this book easily fall out, and there are a LOT of mistakes in the review questions (they often give you the wrong answer in the answer key). Please consider buying another book. Rating: - Informative!I love this book! It is not only for self help in trigger point therapy, but gives the certified massage therapist a lot of useful information in order to provide relief from trigger points when working with clients! Rating:  - Better books out thereI had previously bought the book by Clair Davies which is excellent but I wanted more in-depth knowledge. Saw the reviews on this book and ordered it. The cost of the book was definitely not worth the extra information. This book was 3 times the cost of the Clair Davies book with only slightly more useful information. Save your money, buy the Clair Davies book. Or if you really want in-depth knowledge and price is not a factor, buy the 2 volume set by Travell and Simons. Rating: - In depth and informative courseThis book has been very informative and I have gained a deeper knowledge of trigger point therapy. I would recommend this book and would like to purchase the video that accompanies this text. page 1 of 2
