Dr. Tzurei Chen Publishes Chapters on Neurologic and Geriatric Physical Therapy

Tzurei ChenDr. Tzurei Chen recently collaborated with Dr. Kevin Chui to publish two chapters in two textbooks frequently adopted in entry-level physical therapy education and used in clinical practice. Both textbooks are also used by physical therapists as preparatory resources for American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties exams. The first chapter is on proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation for select patient populations including those with neurologic dysfunction, amputation, and chronic low back pain. The second chapter is on impaired joint mobility for older adults and addresses all of the elements of patient/client management. Both chapters incorporate the most recent evidence to inform clinical-decision making.
