Description
Written by Rebecca Giusti, DO and Raymond Hruby, DO, MS, FAAO (Dist), “High Velocity Low Amplitude Principles and Techniques: an Osteopathic Perspective” is an innovative text that utilizes text, images, and video available at your fingertips.
The introduction is written for all audiences and offers an evidence based comprehensive review of the proposed mechanism of action of HVLA, its postulated effects and a discussion of its indications and contraindications, and its safety. The following chapters include HVLA techniques commonly practiced in osteopathic, physiotherapy, and manual medicine settings. These chapters are tailored specifically for use by osteopathic medical students and physicians who have received training in anatomy and high velocity manipulative treatment.
