DESCRIPCION:
In Neuromuscular Rehabilitation in Manual and Physical Therapy the vast and complex discipline of neuromuscular rehabilitation is simplified for clinical use. It is a synthesis of over half a century of research, and can be described as "neuromuscular rehabilitation made easy".
Neuromuscular rehabilitation is a well-researched area that is now becoming a dominant therapeutic intervention in musculoskeletal care and sports rehabilitation. Following injury there are motor changes and losses associated with functional reorganization of the neuromuscular system. Research, as well as current clinical practice, is turning toward a neuromuscular rehabilitation model as an important element for in the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries and pain management.
