A Physiotherapist’s Guide to Understanding and Managing ME/CFS

Myalgic encephalomyelitis, also known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, is a deeply complex and multi-system condition which has historically suffered from a lack of awareness within physiotherapy education and practice. Similarities in presentation between this condition and Long Covid make this comprehensive and evidence-based guide for physiotherapists even more timely and important. This guide includes an in-depth explanation and history of ME/CFS whilst also describing symptoms, varying degrees of severity, and how to manage ME/CFS in children. It also provides detailed management advice and discussion on how the information can directly inform physiotherapy practice, supplemented with patient case studies.A Physiotherapist’s Guide to Understanding and Managing ME/CFS is written by Karen Leslie; Nicola Clague-Baker; Natalie Hilliard; Michelle Bull and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers.
