As in the first edition, the new edition of this book provides exercises for a customized rehabilitation program in the areas of range of motion, progressive strengthening, stretching, and self-mobilization. The authors have provided a description and representative diagram of each exercise for the patient plus short-term and long-term goals. Using this reference, the clinician is encouraged to copy the pages describing the appropriate exercises and give them to the patient for future home use. As the patient progresses, additional exercises can be added until a complete rehabilitation program has been created. New features in the second edition include an emphasis on functional exercise progression and new exercises for vestibular disorders, pre- and postpartum, and osteoporosis.
This book provides a comprehensive collection of exercises designed to guide patients through customized rehabilitation programs. The authors, David J. Magee and James E. Zachazewski, leverage their expertise to detail exercises for range of motion, progressive strengthening, stretching, and self-mobilization. Each exercise includes a description, a representative diagram, and defined short-term and long-term goals, enabling clinicians to create tailored home-use programs for patients. The second edition expands on functional exercise progression and introduces new sections for vestibular disorders, pre- and postpartum care, and osteoporosis.
The second edition of this rehabilitation exercise handbook builds upon its predecessor by incorporating functional exercise progression and expanding its scope to include specialized areas such as vestibular disorders, pre- and postpartum care, and osteoporosis. The structure, which allows clinicians to copy pages for patient use, suggests a practical, hands-on approach to physical therapy. The inclusion of detailed descriptions, diagrams, and goal-setting aims to facilitate effective patient adherence and program customization.
