Myofascial Induction (TM) - An anatomical approach to the treatment
of fascial dysfunction describes the properties of the fascial
network and provides therapeutic solutions for different types of
fascial dysfunction. The material is presented in two volumes:
Volume 1 analyzes in depth the theoretical aspects related to
fascia and focuses on the therapeutic procedures of Myofascial
Induction Therapy (MIT (TM)) for the upper body; Volume 2
summarizes and expands on the theoretical aspects and explains the
therapeutic procedures of MIT for the lower body. Volume 1 is
divided into two parts: Part 1 - The Science and Principles of
Myofascial Induction and Part 2 - Practical Applications of
Myofascial Induction - the Upper Body. Part 1 defines the fascia as
a complex biological system before discussing its multiple
characteristics. Part 2 is the practical part. Here the reader will
find a wide range of manual therapeutic procedures which can be
selected and used to build up the MIT treatments. These processes
are explained in detail and are richly illustrated, in full color,
with diagrams and photographs of their practical application in the
body and in the treated samples of dissected tissues. Each chapter
opens with an introduction offering to the reader some
philosophical background as a reminder that philosophy allows us to
relate the strictly scientific with the empirical. Praxis and
empiricism are the basis of science. The author invites you to join
the scientific fascial adventure that allows us to uncover areas of
knowledge which may have been forgotten or which are not yet
recognized as being related and which might still reveal relevant
information. Once discovered, these facts can help us to better
understand the kinesis of our body and so help the individual to
change their body image and to improve their quality of life.
In this unique and lavishly illustrated book and its accompanying
videos the practitioner can for the first time see the effect of
manual interventions on underlying body structures. Volume 2
addresses its applications to the thoracic and lumbar spine, the
pelvis, and the lower body. The author's own teaching and practice
provide the material that explains and illustrates fascial anatomy
and therapeutic procedures. The beautiful full color photographs
and videos of dissections of non-embalmed cadavers show the
continuity of the fascial system and its dynamic links to other
body systems. By demonstrating the effect that therapy has on body
structures the book will be of interest and practical value to the
physical therapist, osteopath, chiropractor, physician and all
bodyworkers dedicated to manual therapy, as well as to researchers
wishing to build on this ground-breaking material.
