Neurorehabilitation of the Upper Limb Across the Lifespan is a comprehensive guide to managing spastic hypertonia after brain injury, and the ideal reference for therapeutic interventions that optimise arm and hand function to support goal achievement. The first full overview of this area, it is an extensive clinical manual for neurological practice, a key reference for students and qualified practitioners, and a valuable resource for all occupational therapists and physiotherapists working with brain-injured clients.

Covering clinical decision-making, assessment and goal-setting, strength and movement training, splinting, casting, Botulinum toxin injection and surgery, Neurorehabilitation of the Upper Limb Across the Lifespan promotes coordination of a lifelong approach to upper limb management.

Reviews

This book is the only one I know of that addresses upper extremity neurological dysfunction on this level. Other books address neurological dysfunction, but not to this degree of specificity.  (Doodys, 20 February 2015)
