Description

Extensively illustrated and evidence based, Movement System Impairment Syndromes of the Extremities, Cervical and Thoracic Spines helps you effectively diagnose and manage musculoskeletal pain. It discusses diagnostic categories and their associated muscle and movement imbalances, and makes recommendations for treatment. Also covered is the examination itself, plus exercise principles, specific corrective exercises, and the modification of functional activities. Case studies provide examples of clinical reasoning, and a companion Evolve website includes video clips of tests and procedures. Written and edited by the leading experts on muscle and movement, Shirley Sahrmann and associates, this book is a companion to the popular Diagnosis and Treatment of Movement Impairment Syndromes. An organized and structured method helps you make sound decisions in analyzing the mechanical cause of movement impairment syndromes, determining the contributing factors, and planning a strategy for management. Detailed, yet clear explanations of examination, exercise principles, specific corrective exercises, and modification of functional activities for case management provide the tools you need to identify movement imbalances, establish the relevant diagnosis, and develop the corrective exercise prescription. Case studies illustrate the clinical reasoning used in managing musculoskeletal pain. Evidence-based research supports the procedures covered in the text. Over 360 full-color illustrations — plus tables and summary boxes — highlight essential concepts and procedures. A companion Evolve website includes video clips demonstrating the tests and procedures and printable grids from the book.

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I love this book. It is my new bible of physical therapy. Both for assessment and treatment. For example, never thought to assess and treat for lack of rib cage expansion for restricted cervical rotation, neck pain and shoulder pain. But makes perfect sense. If the ribs stay depressed, lack of cervical rotation may not be tight scalenes. The scalenes may be normal length with normal elasticity with no hypertonicity. They are just at max length due to the depression (restriction) of the rib cage on one side. Treat that, and full rotation! And this is only one example.

⭐This book is game changer as far as how you assess, treat and rehabilitate non acute, non surgically injuries. It is a must have and this book/philosophy should be taught to every PT and ATC educational program in the United States. Once you read it, you realize the mistakes you made with previous patients and how to improve your treatment outcomes in the future.

⭐Shirley Sahrmann set out her theory of movement impairment in her first book in 2001. This was ground breaking work and has worked very well for me in cases of long term or insidious onset pain problems. She covered diagnosis of the shoulder/scapula, low back, and hip.Shirley has now been joined by a very talented group of therapists/researchers to 1. fill in the acute injury diagnosis (done very simply and elegantly by identifying the part involved and then staging the point in the recovery), and 2. to establish diagnoses for the other areas of the body (neck, elbow, hand, thorax, knee, and ankle/foot.The organization of the book is much improved with each area again getting it’s own chapter, then each movement impairment is outlined with general guidelines for treatment included in an appendix after each chapter. The treatment guidelines are especially helpful since I find myself searching Sahrmann’s first book through the body of the text when I need additional ideas for treatment.Movement System Impairment Syndromes of the Extremities, Cervical and Thoracic Spines, is a long awaited and very welcome addition to, not only Sahrmann’s work, but to the field of physical therapy. We need a cogent, concise, and thorough approach to describing and organizing the various injuries, pains, and function impairments that we see; that is, a diagnostic system. These books are an excellent start.

⭐This book is a companion book to Sahrmann’s original book diagnosis and treatment of movement systems impairment syndromes. It is based on classifying different injuries into movement system impairments and outlines the treatment for the different syndromes. I found it to be an enlightening read, however I would have to refer to it constantly to get these movement impairments cemented in my head. I truly believe that if this system Isis utilised it would speed up the recovery of orthopaedic patients.Although the original book is not necessary to understand the principles of this book, there is frequent reference to it so it would also be useful to purchase the original to accompany this one.

⭐I have not completed reading the text but, to this point the author breaks down how the skeletal components and soft tissue interact. She has identified deviations from optimal postures and provides progressive corrective exercises.

⭐As a strength and conditioning coach with a limited level of A&P, this book is a little over my head, and something that I have to study for a while before I get the information I need (i.e. not a reference). I use the book to understand what my customers PTs and/or Chiropractors diagnosis are. I think her other book, “Diagnosis and Treatment of Movement Impairment Syndromes” is the right book for someone like me; however, if you can afford both they work pretty well together because there are several references in this book that refer to the earlier book.

⭐Very useful information. Significantly shortened client’s length and frequency of visits.

⭐Once again, Shirley Sahrmann presents a great work. I am an amateur interested in human anatomy and physical therapy, and this along with her first book are excellent resources for treating and learning about various common orthopedic ailments. A good knowledge of anatomy is required (I recommend “Anatomy of Movement”. Of course, some people will criticize this work for buying in too much to the biomechanics model of pain rather than a CNS dominated model (Janda etc), and for ignoring biopsychosocial factors, but the author and associates experience suggests that correcting postural alignments can have a powerful effect on function. Two thumbs up!

⭐What an amazing book, Shirley Sahrmann is a world leader in the examination and treatment of movement dysfunction, great book, has alot and I mean a lot of knowledge within! shows you how to examine and then treat any movement dysfucntion you might encounter, with the most up to date references and knowledge, great book.

⭐Very good information

⭐Ottimo testo, la base di ogni terapista. Completo di tutta la valutazione delle disfunzioni del movimento di cervicale, toracica, ginocchio,piede, gomito, mano. Purtroppo mancano le valutazioni fondamentali ovvero lombare, spalla, e anca, presenti nel vecchio libro, che per altro allo stato attuale andrebbe aggiornato.La Sahrmann (e autori) con questo testo insegnano le basi della fisioterapia, basata sulle evidenze, per questo ciò che viene riportato non è sindacabile e fa pensare al perché non ci avevi pensato prima.Consigliato a tutti i fisioterapisti sia neolaureati che con esperienza.

⭐Per me è uno dei libri migliori di fisioterapia visti i concetti semplici basati sulla biomeccanica.Mi è servito moltissimo per colmare alcune mie lacune.

⭐Book is good , author explain everything in a good manner.
