| Summary: | This volume is a reference on the diagnosis and treatment of myofascial pain using current techniques with diagrammatic instruction. It provides not only the theoretical understanding of muscle pain and pathology but also describes the trigger point injections, and prescribes the necessary follow-up care for therapeutic success. The authors cover both the theory and current practice of fibromyalgia and myofascial pain management. They provide practical, step-by-step descriptions of both traditional and state-of-the-art approaches to trigger point injections and nerve blocks, accompanied by clear diagrams that illustrate pain patterns, muscle anatomy, patient positioning, and more. An interdisciplinary approach draws on the knowledge and expertise of authorities in the fields of rheumatology, physiatry, orthopedic surgery, psychology, endocrinology, physical therapy, dentistry, ergonomic engineering, and anesthesiology. |
