Description
This book provides an in-depth explanation of normal movement, measurement of movement, and theory-based intervention strategies for remediation of adaptation to limitations in occupational performance. This text provides a comprehensive analysis of normal human movement and provides specific explanations of how movements are produced at specific joints throughout the body. Assessment procedures are included so that movement can be measured. Because clients are seen due to limitations in movement, theory-based intervention strategies are provided with principles of treatment explained in detail.
