MOSBY'S GUIDE TO PATHOLOGY FOR THE MASSAGE THERAPISTS
What readers are saying:
"This is the most well written, comprehensive books on pathology I have ever seen. I highly recommend this book to all educators in the bodywork industry."

"I'm the Director of Education at Massage School in Houston. It was a tough choice between the Salvo book and Ruth Werner's book on pathology. I went with the Salvo for the overall number of pathologies, the amount of illustrations and tables, and the recommendations for specific massage strokes for the pathologies. My students all have fun with being 'shocked' by the pictures which are in color and included in the description of the pathology. My personal recommendation as a massage therapist is that I would have both books in my personal library since the Werner book provides more in-depth information about pathologies she selected to include in her book."
