This textbook offers the training needed to fulfill your responsibilities as a physical therapist assistant. It gives you the knowledge and skills to effectively implement patient treatment plans using therapeutic exercise techniques that you administer under the direction of a physical therapist. Detailed descriptions are provided for the gamut of therapeutic exercises, including range of motion, stretching, open chain resistance training, plyometrics, and functional return. It teaches the purpose, position, and procedure for each technique for a complete understanding of how to guide patients in performing these exercises. Three new chapters have been added: Joint Mobilization ; Therapeutic Exercise for the Preparation of Gait Activities ; Application of Therapeutic Exercise Using Sample Protocols. Review Questions at the end of each chapter test your knowledge and comprehension ; Chapter Objectives summarize key concepts at the beginning of each chapter ; Case Studies demonstrate how the techniques presented in the text are applied to actual patients and how physical therapist assistants and physical therapists work together ; Pediatric and Geriatric Boxes set forth recommendations for exercises that accommodate the needs of children and the elderly ; Clinical Guidelines summarize how, why, and when to use specific techniques. With contributions from 26 therapeutic exercise experts, this textbook not only helps you develop the skills needed to become a physical therapist assistant, but it will also serve as a valuable on-the-job reference.
