“As a reference, this book provides a quality source of information when considering taping techniques for an injury or condition. The explanations of the taping techniques use both written and visual descriptions to help with understanding and application.” Doody’s Book Review "Physical therapists, athletic trainers, and others involved in the rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions, especially those fresh out of their educational training, will find the text full of good ideas and places to start including strapping tape as part of their approach to athlete and patient care.”Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy-- Christopher Geiser, MS, PT, LAT
