Description
• Textbook and practical clinical handbook for all students and practitioners concerned with evaluation, diagnosis, assessment and management of neck pain and cervical headache particularly in relation to whiplash. • Written by a group of researchers and clinicians who are leaders in the field of whiplash and related neck and head pain. • Demonstrates the clinical relevance of the research to the student and busy practitioner. • Suggests future directions for clinical management and future research. • Extensively illustrated with line diagrams and photographs.Key Features
This book presents the applied sciences, clinical assessment methods and rehabilitation protocols for the management of persons with neck pain. The material presented in this book represents the translation of research into clinical practice and provides a systematic approach to assessment and an evidence base for conservative clinical management strategies for neck pain. Unique topics in this book include:• Provides an understanding of the pathophysiological processes in the sensory, motor and sensorimotor systems and how they present in patients with neck pain disorders. • Presents multimodal approaches to management of neck pain guided by the evidence of presenting dysfunctions• Presents a comprehensive description of a therapeutic exercise approach based on motor control which has proven efficacy.About the author
