Many people seek treatment for pain and joint problems. When a patient describes various symptoms, as a practitioner, you should begin by trying to understand where the pain is coming from, so you can provide the right treatment.

In this handbook, David Felhendler shares an evidence-based methodology that simplifies everyday practice for clinicians. With a focus on clinical reasoning, neuroanatomy, and neurophysiology, he offers practical tools and insights for identifying and treating the root causes of problems, rather than just the symptoms. Through concrete examples and reflections, clinicians are guided to make rational and well-informed decisions. With over 30 years of experience as a physiotherapist and private practitioner, this is an invaluable resource for physiotherapists, naprapaths, chiropractors, doctors, students—and anyone with an interest in manual therapy and clinical neuroanatomy.
