This title participates in our Automatic Subscription Renewal Program
Prices for future subscriptions will be at then prevailing rates.
Auto renewal ensures that our customers are always up-to-date with the most critical information and new developments in their fields as well as continuing to receive updates to our products without interruption of service.
By enrolling your product(s) in our Automatic Subscription Renewal Program, subscriptions automatically renew at the end of the term without any further action on your part, until you cancel your participation in the auto-renew program.
Should you decide for any reason that you no longer wish to be enrolled in the automatic renewal program, or you did not intend to enroll, you may cancel at any time. You can cancel by calling Customer Service at 1.800.638.3030 or emailing [email protected].
Under the Automatic Subscription Renewal Program, all subscriptions are renewed at one-year increments. If you want to be auto-renewed with a multi-year subscription, call Customer Service at 1.800.638.3030. You are not required to renew any minimum number of times.
The cost of the renewal will be the subscription price in effect at the time of each renewal including applicable sales tax and shipping and handling charges. Subscription renewal prices are subject to increase in the future.
Enrolling a subscription product under our automatic renewal program does not affect our cancellation policy. If you have any questions on our cancellation policy, please call Customer Service at 1.800.638.3030 or emailing [email protected].
I read and understand the auto-renew terms and conditions.
Authored by two leading researchers in the athletic training field, the Second Edition of Therapeutic Modalities: The Art and Science provides the knowledge needed to evaluate and select the most appropriate modalities to treat injuries. The authors use an informal, student-friendly writing style to hold students' interest and help them grasp difficult concepts. The unique approach of the text teaches aspiring clinicians both the how and the why of therapeutic modality use, training them to be decision-making professionals rather than simply technicians. The Second Edition is revised and expanded to include the latest research in therapeutic modalities. New material has been added on evidence-based practice, and other areas, such as pain treatment, are significantly expanded. It retains the successful format of providing the necessary background information on the modalities, followed by the authors' "5-Step Application Procedure." New photos, illustrations, and case studies have also been added.
