Myofascial Pain and Dysfunction The Trigger Point ManualFebruary 12, 2008 Ingeborg Van Wely(Lavigny, Switzerland) When I received this book as a present for passing my medical masseuse exams, I thought I received a "how to fix it" book. These books are much more for they cover anatomy, innervation, function, testing, reasons behind the pain, differential diagnosis, corrective actions all in addition to Triggerpoint Treatment. The 2 volumes are a must have in your library for daily reference and/or study. The illustrations are a welcome aid to oneself or for explanatory purposes to clients.
