Summary: Great for NCBTMB exam review!
Comment: I don't think I'd want to pay $80 for this book, but getting it used in paperback was well worth the investment! I'll have it as a guide for years to come. The end of chapter quizzes were very useful in test preparation, and I found the massage routines useful since I didn't learn their style in my massage schools. Could use more in terms of Ayruvedic medicine, though, since that's part of the National Exam now.

Summary: Great manual!
Comment: I am a massage student, finishing up a 510 hour, year long course, and I LOVE this book. I do agree with the other reviewers in that it is general with respect to some of the anatomy and physiology. However, I used it this way: First I read an A&P chapter (for example, on the Digestive System) in Milady's as a sort of introduction, then I read the corresponding chapter in my anatomy book. this sort of "tiered studying" helped me to understand the more verbose, difficult A&P info. I hope that helps someone out there.... bottom line, this book was the cornerstone of my studies!

Summary: Well-written book and good reference for NCETMB
Comment: I used this book to help me prepare for the NCETMB. It was especially helpful for draping techniques, massage techniques and massage theory. It has some anatomy and physiology information for the boards but it wasn't enough. I also used the following which is also available on amazon:
The Ultimate Study Guide for the National Certification Examination for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork: Key Review Questions and Answers
(Vol 1) ISBN: 0971999643
(Vol 2) ISBN: 0971999651
(Vol 3) ISBN: 097199966X
The last three study guides are just great for the type of questions to prepare for on the national certification examination for therapeutic massage and bodywork. These study guides were very complete for all the topics being tested on the NCETMB.
