Looking for the definitive guide to lower-limb biomechanics that elite clinicians trust? The long-awaited 2023 first-edition hardcover “Clinical Biomechanics Of The Lower Limbs Using The NBA System” by Dr. A.R. Najjarine delivers exactly that. Published by the International Association of Clinical Biomechanics, this 428-page illustrated textbook translates the proven Najjarine Biomechanical Assessment (NBA) method into step-by-step protocols you can apply in clinic the same day. Podiatrists, physiotherapists, sports-medicine doctors and osteopathy students all praise the book for bridging the gap between academic theory and real-world patient outcomes.
What sets this volume apart is its systematic, data-driven approach to foot, ankle, knee and hip function. Every page is packed with high-resolution clinical photos, vector diagrams and case studies that show how to quantify joint angles, force vectors and gait asymmetries with everyday equipment. Readers gain a repeatable shorthand for documenting dysfunction, predicting injury risk, and crafting evidence-based treatment plans—whether the goal is returning an NBA point guard to court or helping a weekend-warrior runner beat shin splints. The hardcover binding lays flat on treatment benches, and the crisp 2023 first-edition print run is already gaining collector value among practitioners who want the unaltered original tables and algorithms.
This particular copy is an extra-desirable find: a clean, tightly-bound first printing with only minor cover wear and no dog-eared pages. A brief gift inscription on the front end-paper adds character without obscuring text, making it ideal for both clinical reference and professional gifting. With demand for sports-performance and orthopedic content surging online, owning the foundational NBA System text puts you ahead of Google searches for “lower-limb biomechanics protocol,” “evidence-based gait analysis,” and “NBA method podiatry.” Secure this illustrated hardcover now and step into 2024 with the assessment tool that turns every lower-limb exam into a measurable, monetizable skill set.
