It contains more than 256 pages of detailed information, concisely organized into chapters that correspond with the specific exam content outlines presented by every state and national examination. Following each chapter are pertinent multiple-choice review questions. The newly published 6th Edition (published 2010) contains updated exam content outlines for the states of New York, Ohio, Hawaii, the FSMTB (MBLEx), and the NCETMB & NCETM. There is an updated Clinical Massage section, updated Pathology section with more Pharmacology & Nutrition, and an updated Business Practices section with more information on business plans, licensure issues, professional standards, billing practices, insurance, and client charting. The author suggests that only an atlas of musculoskeletal anatomy and a medical dictionary are needed as supplementary material when using the Complete Review Guide to prepare for standardized examinations.
