Summary |
"Kinesiology for Occupational Therapy helps occupational therapists manage each step of the Kinesiology continuum from problem identification of client musculoskeletal factors to the final stage of selecting appropriate intervention strategies." "To help bridge the gap from classroom to clients, a comprehensive analysis of normal human movement is included. Read specific explanations of how movements are produced at specific joints throughout the body. By enhancing your understanding of normal movement, you will be better prepared to detect and measure deficiencies in occupational performance. Assessment procedures are included so that movement can be properly evaluated and measured."--BOOK JACKET |
