Theory & Practice of Therapeutic Massage

I ordered two weeks before classes started and I received my book the following week! This book is great, the information is all encompassing. Recommend highly! Thank you for your prompt delivery and great service!

This book is great for the massage therapy student. It is filled with wonderful information.

I am a massage student, finishing up a 510 hour, year long course, and I LOVE this book. I do agree with the other reviewers in that it is general with respect to some of the anatomy and physiology. However, I used it this way: First I read an A & P chapter (for example, on the Digestive System) in Milady's as a sort of introduction, then I read the corresponding chapter in my anatomy book. this sort of "tiered studying" helped me to understand the more verbose, difficult A & P info. I hope that helps someone out there.... bottom line, this book was the cornerstone of my studies!

The text is comprehensive and is the best on the market today. Beck really does a great job. Massage therapy is a tricky thing to teach on paper.

A COMPREHENSIVE RESOURCE WRITTEN IN PROFESSIONAL BUT EASY TO UNDERSTAND LANGUAGE. AN IDEAL BOOK TOCARRY A PERSON THROUGHTHEIR MASSAGE TRAINING. STURDY BINDING, CHAPTER LAYOUT LOGICAL. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.
