A very good book, but advanced for the new grad (at least it was for me). It does contain wonderful information and utilizes NDT. It certainly is easier to understand after an intro NDT course teaches the basics. I dig this book out from time to time to freshen up my skills with CVA patients.
Great Book

Great book with many guidelines for physios and homecarer's. Comprehensive how to's with many pictures. It's really a steps to follow manual.
A must for any therapist working with adult CVA!

Patricia Davies Gives very descriptive, practical approaches that work. Even if you have not had specific NDT training, you can, as a therapist, learn from, and follow her approach. There are plenty of pictures to help guide. If you are a physical or occupational therapist even attempting to work with adults who have had neuro. dysfunction, you owe it to them to read this book!
