Musculoskeletal Pathologies

Review of Mosby’s Pathology for Massage Therapists by Susan G. Salvo & Sandra Kauffman Anderson. Chapter 4.

The review (for me a review) of how muscle contraction works with excellent use of pictures was helpful. Almost every listing of “Massage Considerations” was very useful and helped me get a better handle on inflammation considerations.

Review of Mosby’s Pathology for Massage Therapists by Susan G. Salvo & Sandra Kauffman Anderson.  Chapter 3.

I really like how the authors set up this book. The following chapters are all set up with the pathologies listed in alphabetical order along with pictures. It was particularly helpful to see the variety of scar tissue to get a better idea on how to work with it.
