Occupational Therapy for Physical Dysfunction by Mary Vining Radomski:

Excellent delivery and well worth for the money very good presentation will deal again highly recommended

The bible of physical dysfunction:

As an OT student, I've used this book more in clinic (rehab settings) than any other text I own. It is an invaluable reference for manual muscle testing and goniometery. Trombly carries over from class to clinic with ease, and I've even had OTRs borrow it during my fieldwork.

Excellent Resource:

As an occupational therapy student currently assigned to a physical dysfunction site, I have found this text to be the most valuable. I advise any student taking the NBCOT exam or begining a affilitation in physical dysfunction to purchase this text!!

"OT for Phys Dys" was a survival tool:

OT for Physical Dysfunction proved to be indispensible both in school and in practice. This text has practice skills in assessment and treatment organized for use in problem-based and in evidence-based learning courses. Treatment principles are outlined with actual therapy techniques, sample documentation and specific information to treat different diagnoses with photos. Absolutely my most-used text.
