Description
The human pelvis has become a focus for a considerable amount of new research, which is relevant to manual therapy practice. In particular, movement within the pelvis is now being recognized and studied in relation to its role in maintaining stability in the vertebral column and subsequent implications for the prevention and treatment of low back pain. This important subject area for clinicians will be covered in depth in the new edition Movement,Stability and Lumbopelvic pain. The contributors represent the breadth of professionals involved in manual therapy, from osteopathy, chiropractic and manual physical therapy, to orthopaedic medicine and surgery, anaesthesia and pain control. The new edition will present the latest research and developments in this high profile and fast developing area and will demonstrate the relevance of research to clinical practice.
