User’s Reviews

Editorial Reviews: Review “This book is awesome! It should really be called ‘here is everything you need to know about rehabilitation and all the good stuff you have forgotten about’…This book gives you up to date information on the etiology of orthopaedic conditions, surgical procedures as well as surgical indications and considerations. However, its real strength lies in the guidelines and suggestions it has for the rehabilitation programs. The rehabilitation exercises are realistic, easy to implement and full of clinical nuggets which definitely makes the book come alive…This book will serve as a great reference point for any physiotherapists, or if you’re like me it inspired a lot of new ideas for my clinic.” In Touch, July 2013 –This text refers to the hardcover edition.

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

⭐i rented this as it was the only current resource i could find on anterior total hip replacement. I am not a PT in training so i only read that (new) chapter but it was helpful for me to visualize the procedure that i had just had.

⭐I was looking for the perfect book to guide, teach, and help me get back into practice as a PTA! I am super excited to have this book on my shelf. I have been out of practice for many years and my most recent work experience was not in Outpatient Ortho/Rehab. I feel this book will help me to gain knowledge of the rehab and surgeries performed today rather than 18 years ago when I graduated from PT Assistant school.

⭐Exactly as advertised and what we wanted. This item is just as pictured. Most useful product that arrived promptly and in good condition.

⭐I bought this specifically to gain insights into the rehab of elbow ORIF and radial head prosthesis. Not a spectacularly obscure orthopaedic procedure but not covered by this textbook. Fairly standard and lacking the sort of specific advice a practitioner would look for. No details on pain recovery or any case studies or example protocols.

⭐Good textbookGot a 10% discount through amazon
