Today, one patient in four seeking medical aid does so solely with a locomotor system complaint. Many of the remaining three-quarters of all patients seeking medical aid primarily for other reasons also complain of stiffness, aches, and painful movement. The muscular-skeletal dis- orders of patients in these two categories comprise the greatest single cause of sick leave. The persons affected dominate the group of those who retire early on disability pensions. The socio-economic problems resulting from muscular-skeletal dis- orders are undoubtedly greater and more wide- spread than indicated by any single statistic. Years of research and experience in studying and treating locomotor system maladies have clearly proven the effectiveness of treatment through "relaxation and stretching of shortened muscles and other related ·structures.
The techniques involved are basically therapeutic, but they may also be applied in preventative exercise at all levels of physicallraining programs, for persons of all ages. Our research has been pragmatically oriented towards attaining results for a greater number of patients over longer periods of time. Hence we have not conducted double-blind tests, but instead have allowed our patients to function as their own controls. Prolonged dysfunction, which diminishes dramatically after relaxation and stretching treat- ment, is more than ample proof of treatment effectiveness, both for the therapist and for the patients involved. This book is a compendium of therapeutic techniques that we have used to successfully treat patients with reduced mobility caused by shor- tened structures.
