Jessica Kingsley Publishers Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement, Second
Book Synopsis"Brilliant Like reading the best well kept secrets about the human body freely, clearly and openly!This is a must read for all movement teachers, practitioners and all curious about the human body!" Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"I am exuberant about this book. It is stunning in its depth, including an historical perspective of anatomy as well as clearly written exposition about the intricacies of human posture and movement. I especially like the exercises for practice that help to bring the text alive. I couldn''t be more pleased with this articulate, readable anatomy and movement book. I predict it will become a sourcebook for yoga teachers and other health professionals for years to come."Judith Hanson, yoga teacher"From Anatomy to Architecture, from Biomechanical to Biomotional and from Classical to Connected "- speaks to all bodies, in all modalities; in a world seeking unity and connection more than ever.Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement was written partly as an appeal for Yoga Teachers to appreciate the depth and breadth of Yoga as a science, a movement practice and a philosophy that fundamentally espouses "wholeness" as the basis of living anatomy and form. Yoga calls for unifying who and how we are; and as teachers - how we can help our clients (who are all different) move better.Classical Anatomy (in the West) divides the body down into its component parts and traditionally (unchanged for 400 years) reduces its functionality to those parts; usually described in a 2D iconic forms and founded in lever-based mechanics. In the East, such reductionism was never espoused and Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement covers two huge bases to bridge the difference and upgrade understanding of Yoga, to 21st Century anatomy:The first is to recognise that the leading edge of Fascia Science changes all those reductionist views (anatomically and biomechanically). It is carefully explained in the first part of the book and shows how the New Science of Body Architecture actually makes perfect sense of yogic philosophy of union and wholeness.The second is to take this paradigm shift and apply it in practice, to the subtle understanding of the fascial architecture and how that helps us move better. Yoga, Fascia, Anatomy and Movement attempts to ask questions, find suitable research and make all this practical and applicable to teachers and practitioners of all types. (Indeed, it teaches "posture profiling" and creating Class Mandalas, to support this). It is a contemporary yoga teacher''s bible.This book is for those who want to integrate scientific knowledge with practical application in yoga and movement disciplines, as well as yoga therapists and teacher, yoga instructors, bodyworkers, manual therapists, movement educators, anatomy and physiology students, somatic practitioners, fascia enthusiasts.Joanne''s newest book Myofascial Magic in Action: A Movement Practitioner''s Guide to How the Body Really Moves (Understanding Fascia) publishes in December 2024.

Jessica Kingsley Publishers An Inner Approach to Cranial Osteopathy
Book SynopsisThis book is for the current Cranial Osteopathic practitioner. It looks into Cranial Osteopathy from a more profound ''inner'' approach to help the practitioner to understand Cranial Osteopathy from a deeper and broader perspective. The book starts by taking the reader on an ''inner'' journey of understanding more about themselves as the practitioner, discussing the ''osteopathic toolbox'', and the need to be ''inner centred'' when diagnosing and treating. It then looks at aspects of diagnosis - of tissue and fluid states - giving the reader several ''inner'' considerations which they should apply when assessing a patient. The book then looks at the whole body and using an ''inner'' approach to assess and treat each area. Each chapter gives an overview of the relevant anatomy and discusses the osteopathic relevance and new ways of working. Case studies/clinical experiences are described and ''hands on'' exercises, which can be accessed via audio files, are given for the reader to practise. These exercises should be done ''at the treatment table'' and will prepare the reader to use the approaches described with their patients. The audio leads the listener through a ''guided tour'' of the anatomy and explains the exercise while they use their hands to feel what the author is describing.This guide will help Cranial Osteopathic practitioners enhance their skills, knowledge and understanding to a much-advanced level.

It also provides detailed management advice and discussion on how the information can directly inform physiotherapy practice, supplemented with patient case studies.Trade ReviewEvery fields of physiotherapy have their own fundamentals text. This book is the one for physiotherapists working in the field of post-infectious conditions. I am amazed by the depth of the science in this book. This is an exceptional resource that steers away from cookbook recipes and instead focusses on principles for safe and effective physiotherapy. I encourage professional organizations, even outside physiotherapy, and university programs worldwide to integrate this content into training and continued education initiatives to improve quality of care. I encourage researchers to integrate this knowledge when designing research programs in this field. -- Simon Décary, PT, PhD, Co-Lead Principal Investigator Long COVID Web, Canada

Jessica Kingsley Publishers Assessment and Treatment Methods for Manual
Book SynopsisEffectively assessing clients and knowing how to treat them is the cornerstone of manual therapy. This practical and informative book gives clear and detailed information about these two steps. The book provides step-by-step instructions (including Illustrations) for 19 assessment methods and 24 gentle treatment methods, some of which appear in print for the first time. These methods can be combined to give multiple options for treatment, as demonstrated in five practical examples which demonstrate how the practitioner can apply the methods to improve their clients'' wellbeing. The author also describes his six-axis model of variance among treatment methods, which will be particularly useful for practitioners who may want to develop additional new treatment methods of their own.Jeff Burch seeks to demystify the complex and often inconsistent terminology found in many manual therapy texts, making this a practical text for readers of all levels. It will be a useful tool for osteopaths, massage therapists, chiropractors, occupational therapists, physical therapists, structural integrators, and all bodyworkers.

Jessica Kingsley Publishers Functional Exercise Prescription: Supporting
Book SynopsisIn Functional Exercise Prescription Eyal Lederman presents a revolutionary new approach for exercise prescription that uses the individual''s own movement repertoire. The book demonstrates how daily activities (the life gym) can be amplified to provide the necessary movement challenges to support movement rehabilitation in many musculoskeletal and pain conditions. Hence, all activities can become remedial without the need to prescribe unfamiliar exercise; in other words, ''how to exercise without exercise'' or ''how to rehabilitate without exercise''.People recover from most musculoskeletal and pain conditions through three key processes: repair, adaptation, and alleviation of symptoms. The author explains how to identify the individual''s recovery process and how to select the appropriate daily or sporting activities, and, how they can be modified to support recovery.Functional Exercise Prescription is a dramatic departure from the traditional strength and conditioning models that have been used for rehabilitation. The book explores the limitation of these models and explains how they can be replaced by functional daily activities (''functioncise''). It provides the practitioner with practical tools to construct a tailor-made plan for each individual to help expedite and optimize their recovery. Most rehabilitation can be constructed from a small familiar set of daily or sports activities.All human physical activity is exercise. Life is your gym.

Book SynopsisEssential Concepts of Occupation for Occupational Therapy is an accessible introduction to vital concepts in occupational science for the occupational therapy practitioner or student. It invites therapists to view and understand their clients differentlyâby using an âœoccupational lensâ to focus on the lives of their clients as everyday doers. It addresses the key questions at the heart of understanding humans as occupational beings: What do people typically do? And, where, when, how, why, and with whom do they do it?These questions organize the key concepts from occupational science that form the first chapters of this book, enabling therapists to better understand their clientsâand enabling their clients to better understand the importance of occupation to their well-being. Additional chapters clearly describe how therapists can use occupation-based models to apply an expanded view of occupation and make evaluation and intervention more relevant and beneficial to their clients. A final chapter examines trends and lifestyle changes occurring in the 21st century to anticipate how these might impact future practice.Through use of engaging and thoughtful cases that illustrate many of the concepts, this guide will help practitioners clearly understand their clients as doers, while also providing enhanced ways for therapist to confidently apply these concepts in practice.Table of ContentsPreface 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Notebook of a New Clinical Neuropsychologist
Book SynopsisHave you ever looked at a heavy volume on neuropsychology and wondered what it would actually be like to become a professional clinician, working every day with neurological patients in a busy hospital while simultaneously learning your craft? This book tells the story of that journey. The Notebook of a New Clinical Neuropsychologist vividly details the experience of starting work in clinical neuropsychology, exploring early-career learning and development through an intimate, case-based approach. Topics include the learning of basic clinical skills and knowledge, counter-transference, the clinician's emotional experiences, ethical and moral dilemmas, and the development of clinical reasoning. The book is structured around individual studies from the author's early caseload, with each vignette containing the relevant neuropathology, clinical presentation, history, neuropsychological test finding and other clinical data. Chapters are also organized around key neuTrade ReviewAt the beginning of this book, a young Rudi Coetzer asks a senior colleague for help: "How to resemble a clinical neuropsychologist, just a tiny little bit more as I go along?". This question is also continually asked by my students. This excellent book provides an answer and will help students and young professionals develop. A mixture of sound theoretical knowledge, experience, understanding, and most importantly, deep clinical wisdom, this is a great and highly-needed book for young and more experienced psychologists alike. (Sanna Koskinen, Clinical neuropsychologist, University lecturer, PhD, University of Helsinki)This beautiful book interweaves the vulnerability and modesty of a budding new neuropsychologist with the narratives of patients as experienced from the clinician's side of the desk. What adds great weight to the value of the book is that Rudi Coetzer has remained true to the origins of his first cases and refrained from the temptation of choosing only the extraordinary cases – as a result his book is both remarkable and a precious addition to the literature.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Life After Encephalitis
Book SynopsisEncephalitis is a devastating condition whose impact upon people should not be underestimated. It robs people of abilities most of us take for granted, it leaves people without their loved ones, and even in those families where the person affected survives the person they once knew can be dramatically changed. Life After Encephalitis provides a unique insight into the experiences of those affected by encephalitis, sharing the rich, perceptive, and often powerful, narratives of survivors and family members. It shows how listening to patient and family narratives can help us to understand how they make sense of what has happened to them, and also help professionals better understand and engage with them in practice. The book will also be useful for considering narratives associated with brain injuries from other causes, for example traumatic brain injury. Life After Encephalitis will appeal to a wide range of professionals woTrade Review"Easton’s book makes you think about identity. If our brains hold our memories that largely determine ourpersonality and effectively define us, what does it meanif part of our brain is destroyed? Personality creates relationships—so when someone you love changes, what happens to the relationship? Encephalitis is undoubtedly a thief, and Easton does an excellent job at explaining why." – Jules Morgan, The Lancet Neurology"I always thought I was a one-off; unique. Back then I had no one to share my experience with…If this book had been available then, I would have realised others had gone, and were going through, similar things to me." – Simon Hattenstone, Journalist and features writer, The Guardian"Life After Encephalitis has given a voice to the millions of people worldwide affected by this horrible condition. As the sister of someone who fought her own battle with encephalitis, I believe it was important that my mum contributed to Ava’s book so that others can take some comfort in knowing they are not, and never will be alone." – Rebecca Adlington, OBE"This is a wonderful book. Ava Easton says in the preface to Life After Encephalitis that she hopes that it gives a voice to survivors of encephalitis. It does. It is a book of stories from which we learn what encephalitis is and how it affects the brain, but more importantly how it changes the lives of those who survive it." – Professor Jon Evans, University of Glasgow"I was absolutely delighted to provide the cover image for such an important book. Having met several survivors of encephalitis I realised how deeply this condition impacts on their lives. Ava’s book does a fantastic job in sharing some of their stories whilst also empowering professionals, and I’m sure it’ll go a long way to improving understanding and care of encephalitis survivors and those left bereaved by the condition." – Bill Ward"When my husband suffered a brain injury we were plunged into an unknown landscape with no knowledge at all of how to cope or what had even happened. This immensely readable book provides immediate insight, help and knowledge of Encephalitis and will be an invaluable guide to anyone who has to deal with this frightening condition" – Kika Markham"Dr Ava Easton has done something remarkable with this book: she has given life and support to patients and families living through this silent disease. From the first-person cases to the in-depth research and passionate dedication to her work as the head of the Encephalitis Society, Ava Easton has given us a gift with this tremendously important book." – Susannah Cahalan, author of Brain On Fire: My Month of Madness"The book is a valuable and overdue addition to the growing body of literature on encephalitis; a disease that manifests in a variety of forms, is often misunderstood, devastating and sometimes deadly. The book is unique in that it tells many stories of encephalitis, from different perspectives, eg, the survivor, the parents of those that did not make it, the physician, as well as those that are unable to tell their story. Encephalitis is much more than just "inflammation of the brain" and its consequences are far-reaching and life-altering. The many narratives in the book illustrate this brilliantly. The book will appeal to a wide readership, including academics, healthcare providers and all those that have been affected or have an interest in learning more." - The Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis Foundation"This is an excellent book. I can't put it down. Thank you for pulling together these patient stories which are at once both ordinary and extraordinary. I've no doubt of the importance of this work for medical professionals." - Benedict Michael, NIHR Academic Clinical Lecturer, The Walton Centre NHS Foundation Trust, Liverpool, Centre for Immune and Inflammatory Disease, Harvard Medical School"This is an essential book, not only for those recovering from encephalitis, those relatives or friends or professionals involved in the care of people with encephalitis, neurology wards and clinic areas, but also the general reader interested in knowing more about the impact of sudden acquired brain disease on people through patient narratives." -Michael Zandi, ACNR co-editor, Honorary Consultant Neurologist National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery "Life after encephalitis provides a voice to individuals affected by encephalitis. We all tell stories; it is part of being human as a way of making sense of our experience individually or with others. Our sense of self can be understood as the story of who we are and this identity can be interrupted by encephalitis without invitation or warning. Cognitive problems with memory or language and psychosocial changes following encephalitis can alter an individual’s sense of who he or she is. The narratives within the book can help people affected by encephalitis to understand the new path they find themselves on.

SLACK Incorporated The Comprehensive Manual of Therapeutic Exercises: Orthopedic and General Conditions
Therapeutic exercises can be found spread out amongst numerous texts, handouts, card boxes, and websites, which has sent clinicians, practitioners, and trainers searching for reliable, evidence-based exercises for the entire body, all packaged into a single, all-inclusive manual. To that end, The Comprehensive Manual of Therapeutic Exercises: Orthopedic and General Conditions was written as a fundamental resource on exercise theory and techniques, and as a comprehensive guide for designing exercise programs. Dr. Elizabeth Bryan has compiled thousands of clinically relevant exercises to create a text that will teach students theory and proper application that they will then return to again and again in their career as a reference to aid in designing evidence-based exercise programs for their clients or patients. Introductory chapters cover exercise parameters, exercise progression, the importance of form, muscle soreness, and a reference for body position terminology, then subsequent chapters are organized by body area to cover most of the clinical exercises in use today. Each exercise includes photographs, a list of muscle systems that will be affected, specific substitutions to look for, and detailed instructions directed at students and clinicians. Also included are sections devoted to protocols and specialty exercises including yoga and tai chi. Embracing the principles of evidence-based practice, “Where’s the Evidence?” boxes are prominently featured throughout the text to support the exercises and theory with up-to-date, relevant, sufficient, valid, and reliable studies. Combining theory with practice, The Comprehensive Manual of Therapeutic Exercises: Orthopedic and General Conditions is an essential tool for students as well as clinicians, practitioners, or trainers to find the most appropriate exercises for their client’s or patient’s needs and apply them properly.
