Best book for Studying for National Test?

[Bruno R]

I have failed this test once along with three or four of classmates.
We are needing to know what is the best book to be studying by? We
studied from a book by Patrick leonardi , the Ultimate Study Guide
for Massage and Bodywork. It didn't help us at all. Our test had a
lot of vitamins, minerals, foot baths, and eastern healing on it. Can
anyone give any suggestions for a study guide that would help us?

best book

The best book that I have found is


+ Basic Clinical Massage Therapy but make sure you get the Integrating Anatomy and Treatment. There are two additions and the earlier addition is the better of the two.

About The eastern tradition I have found that there are alot of questions regarding attachments and assessments. It states that there are
25 questions on body systems
42 questions on anatomy phyusiology and kinesiology
18 questions on pathology
30 questions on massage and bodywork assessments
35 on massage and bodywork application
10 on massage standards, ethics, business and legal practices

total of 160 questions.

I to have taken the test several times and I have come so close that it is to close to quit. I"m going to keep trying.
There are alot of good websits with the national practice on them. They list these on this foram. There is alot of experience here on this forum and I love all the comments. I hope this helps

I used the Massage Review Publications. I also bought the Eastern Bodyworker's Study Guide. My friend andI used my books to study with and we passed the first time. I am from NH and we have to take the test that has the Eastern Bodyworkers part of the test. I let another friend use the books she also passed the first time and I have another friend that used this same set of books and we all passed the test the first time. I didn't buy the CD-ROM's just the books. Hope this helps. Good Luck.

I used a book I bought off on amazon called Don't panic! Questions & Answers to help you pass the massage therapy national exam. It was like $20. I helped me alot!
