Latest reviews of PalpationMapp app for iPhone and iPad
This app is completely useless without sound. There is no sound. I spent $25 on the bundle. Unreal...
I recently purchased the Trail Guide to the Body app, and was so impressed with it... that I bought this one! The videos are incredibly helpful! I feel a lot more confident in myself as a student in Occupational Therapy/Physiotherapy Assisting. And I owe part of my success so far to this app!
Im an OT student and wish I had know about this app last year when I was taking anatomy!
There is no sound on the videos!! But otherwise wonderful models and accurate representations of muscle grouping
This is an extraordinary set of palpation videos, that accompany the trail guide to the body book. Very thorough, very informative. The app is easy to navigate, and Ive learned a ton to help me during my massage therapy training. My only complaint is that not all the videos that were made for the book are in the app.
