Applied Biomechanics for Physiotherapy is an educational textbook intended to strengthen the understanding of biomechanical principles and their application in physiotherapy practice. It presents the mechanics of human movement through a structured approach, linking anatomical knowledge with joint function, movement analysis, and clinical applications. The book addresses fundamental concepts of biomechanics and the functional mechanics of major joints, including the shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist and hand, hip, knee, ankle and foot, and spine. Topics include degrees of freedom, planes and axes, osteokinematics, arthrokinematics, concave-convex principles, joint capsules, ligaments, muscle function, and movement mechanics. The content is intended to support classroom learning, examination preparation, practical understanding, and the development of clinical reasoning among physiotherapy students.
