Dr. Horrigan has written two books that have been published.

The first was The Seven-Minute Rotator Cuff Solution which was published in 1990 by Health For Life Publications and was co-written by Jerry Robinson (publisher at Health For Life). This book was sold via direct mail and received numerous favorable reviews from sources such as the Journal of Orthopedic and Sports Physical Therapy, Ironman magazine, Glamour magazine, and by Joe Weider and others. The book was out of print for over five years but is now back in of print. IRONMAN Magazine recently purchased Health For Life Publications. A subsidiary of IRONMAN, Home Gym Warehouse now prints the book. You can go on-line to home-gym.com and select "Books" and then select "Health and Fitness" to find the book. You can also call 800-447-0008 ext 1 to purchase the book. For those who have paid exorbitant prices on Amazon.com, you can now purchase the book for $29.95 plus shipping and handling.

The second book is Strength, Conditioning and Injury Prevention for Hockey. Dr. Horrigan started this book in late 1994 after listening to so many hockey players describe their sadly inadequate in-season and off-season strength and conditioning programs. Dr. Horrigan asked Doc Kreis to join him on this project. Kreis is the UCLA Head Speed-Strength and Conditioning Coach. Kreis has won numerous awards and published two books (see below). Strength, Conditioning and Injury Prevention for Hockey was completed in 1999 and great care was taken to find the right publisher. The book is published by McGraw-Hill/Contemporary Books and is available in bookstores everywhere as of January 2003. Luc Robitaille graces the cover and also wrote the foreword to the book. There are numerous quotes in the book from NHL stars such as Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemiuex, Dave Taylor, Larry Robinson, Rob Blake, Olympian Cammi Granato, and NHL Strength and Conditioning Coaches Steag Theander and Frank Costello, and others.

There are more books coming from Dr. Horrigan. Please check back to this book section for updates.
