I have waited a long time for the new edition and finally it arrived. It has some new ideas, expounds on some standard treatments. I am always looking for new phraseology to help explain things to clients and this book has offered that. This book also explains the necessary parts of anatomy with very clear and concise drawings and photos.There are several other books that are more like textbooks but this is a good addition to my library.
Excellent book to learn more about when it is appropriate to massage a dog or refer for physical therapy.
