  • Biomécanique fonctionnelle

    Membres - Tête - Tronc
    • 3rd Edition
    • Michel Dufour + 3 more
    • 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. Il se veut un préambule à l’action thérapeutique, argumenté de références mécaniques simples et illustré de très nombreux exemples.Sa conception pédagogique facilitera l’acquisition des connaissances :le contenu s’étend à l’ensemble de l’appareil musculo-squelettique du corps humain (membre inférieur, membre supérieur, tronc, cou, et même tête, rarement traitée par ailleurs) ;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 ;les figures, plus de 1000, aident à la compréhension des comportements de structures souvent complexes. Cet ouvrage s’adresse avant tout aux étudiants en kinésithérapie et ostéopathie, mais également aux professionnels, kinésithérapeutes, ostéopathes ou médecins, qui trouveront là des contenus faciles à consulter.Cette troisième édition, mise à jour, propose la mise en couleurs de 350 schémas, rendus plus didactiques, une révision de la bibliographie et un étoffement de l’index. De plus, la maquette tout en couleurs met en valeur la structure du texte et l’enchainement de la réflexion biomécanique.
