In the Fascial Distortion Model (FDM) all injuries and other conditions causing pain or disability are seen as arising from specific distortions of the connective tissue. This book explores the theoretical framework of FDM and approaches to treatment based on an understanding of it. The authors systematically cover all disorders likely to be encountered by the clinician, and provide comprehensive guidance about when it is appropriate to use FDM, and how best to employ these approaches in treatment.
