It helps practitioners to arrive at the correct diagnosis and to become aware of issues which do not fit the diagnosis.

Intended for use chiefly by non-medically qualified practitioners, particularly those working in the field of manual therapy, this book provides a clear guide through the minefield of signs and symptoms with which clients commonly present. Its aim is to help practitioners to arrive quickly and logically at the correct diagnosis and in so doing to become aware of anything which does not fit the diagnosis and so needs to be referred.
