This textbook on sports massage provides instruction on how to apply clinical massage techniques to athletes. It focuses on the use and integration of basic sports massage, myofascial, neuromuscular, and lymphatic facilitation.
I've been a sports therapist for 26 years and have bought studied most of the books on sports massage. Pat Archer has done a tremendous job of organizing, explaining, and demonstrating the methods and rationale for sports massage. This is a great book for beginner or advanced massage therapist, but may be too advanced for non-professionals.
