Athletic Injuries and Common Pain Syndrome

The Healthy Body Handbook will help readers understand the basic structure and function of the musculoskeletal system of the human body, and is written in language easily understood by the layperson, with numerous illustrations. This knowledge will enable readers to be pro-active about their health, make positive lifestyle choices, prevent injuries, and participate fully in the healing of injuries - especially those that are sports-related. It stresses the lifelong necessity of exercise-without overdoing it-and the need to commit to good health for the achievement of a long, balanced, and fulfilling life. This book will teach readers to listen to the signals their bodies give them that warn of impending overuse. It also incudes information about the remedies and procedures physicians are likely to recommend after injury or illness.Saidoff, David is the author of 'Athletic Injuries and Common Pain Syndrome' with ISBN 9781888799729 and ISBN 1888799722.
