Volume 1 provided a thorough understanding of what myofascial pain actually is, and discussed the approach to effective diagnosis and treatment of the syndrome from the waist up. This second volume offers the same effective approach for the lower body muscles. It includes features and reviews of special topics not discussed in other literature. These include an extensive review of the causes of functional scoliosis, and how to identify them clinically; a review of the lower limb length inequality that details radiographic techniques for for accurate measurement; how to examine intrapelvic muscles for trigger points; a topographical guide that simplifies distinguishing the three gluteal muscles and the piriformis muscle when palpating trigger points; the muscular origin of pain in sciatic, gluteal and perineal distributions; and an examination of the complexity of adductor longus muscle which helps explain why its importance is easily overlooked.

Myofascial Pain and Dysfunction: The Trigger Point Manual; Vol. 2., The Lower Extremities PDF

I bought these books (upper and lower extremeties)to help me with trigger point work in the neck and shoulders, especially the scalenes and rotator cuff and to gain more knowledge with other major muscle groups. What I ended up with was a wealth of information, more than I could ever have dreamed of, these books are beautiful, wonderful color illustrations. Clear and easy to follow. There is also information on different stretches and how to educate and help the client. I will have these books for the rest of my life.

I bought the two volume set several years ago. It paid for itself the first time I used it and was able to get a severe headache under control at home, instead of going to the emergency room. Yes, even with a killer headache or back spasm, the book is easy to use, although it's got enough technical detail to make it an essential reference in any physician's library.
