“The Dynamic Body textbook seeks to reflect current understanding and knowledge from innovators and leaders in biomechanics, fascial anatomy, functional movement, and manipulative therapy. Their work has invoked a renewed passion for an integrated clinical model that reinforces the inherent partnership of human structure and function. Working closely with individuals of this caliber over the years has been my reward.”

"Erik Dalton’s new Advanced Myoskeletal Techniques book will revolutionize your approach to treating complex pain and injury conditions. In my 25 years in the manual therapy field, Dalton’s text stands out as one of the most informative and well-written books I have had the pleasure of reading. This colorfully illustrated user-friendly text successfully uses a blend of original, practice-building massage techniques that will enhance any sports medicine, structural integration or medical massage practice. If you can read only one pain management book, this would be my recommendation…once started, you won’t be able to put it down."

"Advanced Myoskeletal Techniques presents many years of examining and studying and defining what myoskeletal techniques are. Examples include "Stretching," "Adverse Neural Tension," "Evolution of Human Touch," "The Common Compensatory Pattern: Its Origin and Relationship to the Postural Model," "The Dirty Dozen," "Beat Pain at its Own Game," and "Minutes, Myofascia and Maintenance." In some books, you can skip reading the foreword and introduction. Please do not do this here. Everything in this book is worthwhile. The main topic of the book is pain. He explains what causes pain, describes ways to improve the situation, and illustrates and lists what massage therapists can do to relieve the source of the problem of pain."
