This book is for individuals who would like to help
other individuals to recover their control of
movement.
Neuromuscular rehabilitation is straightforward
and uncomplicated: we all do it naturally all of the
time. Throughout our lives we learn new movement
patterns or recover our control after an injury. The
means by which we achieve these changes are no
different to neuromuscular rehabilitation. They all
rely on the same neurophysiological, psychological
and behavioural processes.
Neuromuscular rehabilitation integrates several
branches of knowledge. They include medical,
neurophysiological, psychological-behavioural and
motor-control sciences as well as manual and physical
therapy fields. The enormity of available information
from these diverse sources can be
overwhelming, in particular when trying to translate
this information into a practical clinical approach.
The main aim in writing this book was to collate
and integrate all this information and present it in
a practical, user-friendly format.
