Part of the esteemed LWW Massage Therapy & Bodywork Educational Series, this comprehensive textbook introduces scientifically-based massage techniques promoting the alignment of soft tissue relating to pain and dysfunction. It is an essential manual for clinical massage therapy students and practitioners.

Unscratched Access Code Included

The scratch-off panel for "thePoint" online faculty/student resources inside the front cover remains completely unscratched and intact. (Please note: As this is a 2009 edition, we cannot independently verify if the publisher still actively supports the online portal for this specific edition, but the physical code has never been used by a previous owner).

Condition Assessment: Perfect Study Copy

This book is graded as Acceptable / Good Study Copy. It offers excellent structural integrity with some interior markings, making it an affordable working copy for a student.

The Strengths: The exterior of the book is in Very Good condition. The cover and spine are remarkably solid, clean, and tight. The binding is uncracked, and the unscratched access code is a rare find.

The Flaws: The vast majority of the pages are crisp, white, and unmarked. However, there are sections of the book that contain yellow highlighting and neat green pen underlining from a previous student. These markings do not obscure the text and are highly functional for studying, but they are present.

Please view the high-resolution photos and flip-through video in this listing to assess the condition for yourself.
