Mosby's Fundamentals Therapeutic Massage by Sandy Fritz

The first edition of Therapeutic Massage was published in 1995 and as the areas of massage therapy and other bodywork modalities are rapidly changing, it was important to revise the text to keep up with changes in the field. This book teaches the reader how to skilfully apply massage techniques, as well as providing information on sanitation, hygiene, body mechanics, business practices, ethics, and much more. Each chapter builds on the one before it, beginning with the basics and expanding therapeutic applications as well as an introduction to bodywork systems.
