The ideal workbook for learning, practicing, exercising and enhancing “hand skills” in palpation anatomy. This pictorial atlas is a workbook and reference for physical therapists, physicians, osteopaths, massage therapists, and alternative practitioners – professionals who use their hands to examine and treat the musculoskeletal system. The book is about daily “handcraft” – the fast focused palpation, location, and evaluation of anatomical structures. All regions of the human body (head, torso, upper and lower extremities) are considered. All structures relevant to therapy are presented as concisely as possible and in as much detail as is necessary.
Roland Kreutzer was born in Gummersbach in 1966 and has been a physiotherapist since 1991. He is an instructor for Brügger therapy (Zurich concept), a manual therapist, and an active course leader for Sensotape® courses. He has been working at the Philipps University of Marburg since 1992 as a physiotherapist, and since 2005 as a lecturer in the Master’s and Bachelor’s degree programs in physiotherapy. In addition, the author works as a physiotherapist in his own practice in Marburg and is a freelancer for KVM-Verlag, Berlin. This collaboration has resulted in him co-authoring several specialist books in the fields of medicine and physiotherapy. In his free time, he is an enthusiastic cyclist, runner, and swimmer, and thus a regular and active user of "self-tapping"!
