| An Illustrated Guide
to Muscles & Medical Massage Therapy for Pain Relief and Posture Alignment in
Children, Teens & Adults Presented by "OrthoDoc," James H.
Clay, of Winston-Salem, NC
Features a number of pages especially designed for children. There's a simple diagram
of how actin and myosin work to cause muscle contractions that is nonetheless entertaining
and of interest to the layman who would not care, for example, that the role of calcium
has been omitted.
There are also some very practical articles on knee pain, carpal tunnel syndrome (with
an excellent illustration), possible causes of pelvic pain, and lower back pain of
interest to practitioners. Clay believes there are no such maladies as tendinitis or
bursitis because he finds he can always resolve the problems associated with these
conditions with massage, indicating that they are not really "inflammations."
The muscle charts on his page are not completed yet, but for the ones that are, the use
of human models (on which muscles are drawn) relates muscles to the specific problems
encountered by the massage therapist a bit better than the Loyola charts (although the
Loyola charts are still more accurate for theoretical study.)
