Get a multi-dimensional understanding of musculoskeletal anatomy
with Anatomy Trains: Myofascial Meridians for Manual Therapists and
Movement Professionals, 4th Edition. This hugely successful,
one-of-a-kind title continues to center on the application of
anatomy trains across a variety of clinical assessment and
treatment approaches - demonstrating how painful problems in one
area of the body can be linked to a "silent area" away from the
problem, and ultimately giving rise to new treatment strategies.
This new fourth edition has been fully updated with the latest
evidence-based research and includes new coverage of anatomy trains
in motion using Pilates-evolved movement, anatomy trains in horses
and dogs, and the updated fascial compendium on elements,
properties, neurology, and origins of the fascial system. This new
edition also features an enhanced eBook format included with
purchase as well as new photos and images throughout both text
versions. In all, this unique exploration of the role of fascial in
healthy movement and postural distortion is an essential read for
physical therapists, massage therapists, craniosacral therapists,
yoga instructors, osteopathologists, manual therapists, athletic
and personal trainers, dance instructors, chiropractors,
acupuncturists, and any professional working in the field of
movement. Revolutionary approach to the study of human anatomy
provides a holistic map of myoanatomy to help improve the outcomes
of physical therapies that are traditionally used to manage pain
and other musculoskeletal disorders. Relevant theory descriptions
are applied to all common types of movement, posture analysis, and
physical treatment modalities. Intuitive content organization
allows students to reference the concept quickly or gain a more
detailed understanding of any given area according to need. Section
on myofascial force transmission in gait dynamics is written by
guest author James Earls. Robust appendices discuss the relevance
of the Anatomy Trains concept to the work of Dr Louis Schultz
(Meridians of Latitude), Ida Rolf (Structural Integration), and
correspondences with acupuncture meridians. New photos and images
of fascial tissues, adhesions, and layers provide a better
understanding of text content. Revised and expanded content
reflects the most up-to-date research and latest evidence for the
scientific basis of common clinical findings. New, larger library
of videos includes animations and webinars with the author. New
Anatomy Trains in Motion section by guest author Karin Gurtner uses
Pilates-evolved movement to explore strength and plasticity along
myofascial meridians. New addition: Anatomy Trains in Quadrupeds
(horses and dogs) is mapped for equine and pet therapies by Rikke
Schultz, DVM, Tove Due, DVM, and Vibeke Elbrond, DVM, PhD. New
appendix: Updated fascial compendium on elements, properties,
neurology, and origins of the fascial system. NEW! enhanced eBook
version is included with print purchase, which allows students to
access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a
variety of devices.
