Biomécanique fonctionnelle

French

Abordée dès la première année d’apprentissage de la kinésithérapie, la biomécanique constitue le socle fondamental que tout étudiant doit assimiler et comprendre. Ce manuel de référence, tenant compte de l’ensemble du programme de biomécanique des études de kinésithérapie et d’ostéopathie, met l’accent sur la compréhension et la finalité du savoir, dans un domaine rarement abordé sous cet angle. Sa conception pédagogique facilite l’acquisition des connaissances : • L'ouvrage traite l’ensemble de l’appareil musculo-squelettique du corps humain : membre inférieur, membre supérieur, tronc, cou, tête ; • La structure des chapitres permet une mémorisation facile grâce à une base de réflexion pragmatique. Chaque région est ainsi étudiée suivant le même plan : base de réflexion, rappels anatomiques, mobilités, statique, dynamique, contraintes ; • Plus de 1000 figures aident à la compréhension des comportements de structures souvent complexes. Cette deuxième édition, mise à jour, précise et enrichit l’étude de la mécanique appliquée à l’analyse du corps dans ses aspects statiques et dynamiques, tout en conservant la spécificité de l’ouvrage qui met en exergue les finalités fonctionnelles du mouvement. Enfin, la maquette tout en couleurs, met en valeur la structure du texte et l’enchainement de la réflexion biomécanique.
