ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
Written in plain, simple language, this book is a great study guide for massage therapists taking National Certification Examinations or state or local exams. The author restates the topics and concepts covered on the National Exams in a straightforward way for easy retention and comprehension. The text emphasizes memorization and repetition as effective study methods and includes test-taking tips, positive affirmations, and cartoons to ease apprehension about the exam. End-of-chapter practice questions help readers review material. A back-of-book CD-ROM contains three complete practice tests so students can practice taking exams and test their knowledge.
USER REVIEWS
"I found the book to be helpful w/ good review and short quizes. The CD tests were also good practice-- a bit more specific than the actual test.
My big complaint w/ the book were the obvious and numbered mistakes on the quizes. Allen would give a letter answer w/ a mismatched answer. It made it very confusing and frustrating for me, having to look the answer up on my own.

"For those of you looking for one or two comprehensive volumes to truly prepare you, think twice about this book. There are three chapters covered that you are not even tested on, all of which have tons of information. The emphasis of anatomy, physiology and kinesiology details is lacking in the book in comparison to the material covered in the test. I am not allowed to say what is on the test but i will tell you it is thorough and very detailed, medical terminology is essential and hardly covered in this book.
I'd seek a A&P text for a university if i were you, even audit a class if you can.
The practice exams provided on the CD-ROM barely followed the way the test is laid out outside of it being multiple choice.
I am keeping this book because i think it will make a good general reference/guide but is not one i'd recommend, especially if you are not fresh out of massage school. "

"I like the book it's simple and straight to the point with need to know information and just general knowledge of something. I like it and I hate reading and even studying"
