Best Book on Body Mechanics and Injury Prevention for MTs

[PB&J]

Dynamic Bodyuse by Darien Pritchard

There is nothing else remotely as good. Some other references have some useful information, but Mr. Pritchard has practiced and taught successfully for decades, and he brings an unrivaled wealth of knowledge and experience that is utterly unmatched by other authors on the topic. My only regret is that I didn't purchase this text the moment it became available. I keep my copy at the massage center and all of our MTs have been going through it when I'm not reading it myself. This is truly a masterwork by someone that understands the work and walks the talk.

Whether a student, practitioner, or still considering whether to pursue massage as a career, this book has much to offer.

Thanks for the recommendation! Timely in my case. I've been wanting to revisit body mechanics for myself. I'll check it out.

Thanks Jason. I think that books like this should be required reading in massage school.
