The Concise Book of Neuromuscular Therapy: a trigger point manual
Neuromuscular therapy (NMT) is a physical (or manual) therapy specializing in the treatment of soft tissue pain and injury (including change in sensation) whilst medical exercise aims to provide graded physical activities with specific motor learning sequences to restore functional capacity and reduce risk of injury occurrence. NMT is innovative in that it combines the best selection of soft tissue manipulation techniques developed by pioneers with a variety of qualifications and professional backgrounds including osteopathy, chiropractic, naturopathy, and trigger point therapy.
The Concise Book of Neuromuscular Therapy builds on the success of The Concise Book of Muscles, The Concise Book of Trigger Points, and The Concise Book of the Moving Body, which collectively have sold in excess of 100,000 copies. This book takes difficult academic topics and presents them in an easily digested, enjoyable format, whilst keeping the science factual.

“This book is an excellent resource both for the entry level student and for the practicing clinical soft tissue therapist. Its great strength lies in pulling together essential background concepts related to anatomy, physiology, and trigger point dysfunction, and the abundant illustrations are a valuable asset that help make the content come alive for the reader. It is an essential resource text for the student and practicing therapist.”
