Combined Movement Theory

1st Edition
May 13, 2010
Christopher McCarthy
English

This book expands on the widely used concept of combined movements and incorporates both grade IV- manipulative thrust techniques and muscle energy / proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques. The book is the first to include chapters on cervical artery dysfunction (VBI) and upper cervical instability with clinical chapters on the regional management of spinal dysfunction. The first section of the book discusses the underlying theoretical concepts underpinning combined movements theory and manipulation, with the second section offering a comprehensive manual of tests and treatments for each region of the spine. Revision multiple choice tests are at the ends of the theoretical chapters. A chapter on home exercise is included along with a DVD of video clips and clinical reasoning form. The book will provide readers with a comprehensive resource to start using combined movements theory immediately and is a real substitute to attending a course on the method. The book is an update, expansion and development of the Manual of Combined Movements published by Brian Edwards.

La scoliose idiopathique de l'enfant et de l'adulte

1st Edition

French

La scoliose idiopathique est une déformation tridimensionnelle de la colonne vertébrale dont l'étiologie exacte reste inconnue. Bien que son traitement demeure une affaire de spécialistes, son dépistage est l'affaire de tous ! Il est nécessaire que chaque praticien soit en mesure de la dépister, d'en connaître les modalités évolutives, et de pouvoir orienter le patient vers le spécialiste si nécessaire. De gros progrès ont été réalisés ces dernières années tant sur la compréhension de la déformation que sur les possibilités thérapeutiques. Cet ouvrage est l'occasion de faire le point sur cette pathologie qui concerne aussi bien les enfants et les adolescents que les adultes. Cet ouvrage aborde les aspects cliniques, paracliniques et thérapeutiques à tous les âges du diagnostic de la scoliose. Les traitements sont présentés en détail, de manière à permettre à chacun de pouvoir répondre aux questions des patients et de leur famille. Nous avons également voulu y intégrer des chapitres moins « médicaux » concernant les problématiques rencontrées dans la vie courante et les aspects pratiques de cette pathologie. Actuellement, les patients s'informent par leurs propres moyens sur leur pathologie. Il nous faut donc pouvoir devancer et parfois contredire les informations erronées et éventuellement aider au mieux les patients à s'orienter face aux informations qu'ils rencontrent. Cet ouvrage n'est pas un livre de techniques chirurgicales. Il s'adresse à tous ceux qui sont amenés à voir en consultation des patients porteurs d'une scoliose : pédiatres, médecin de réadaptation et de médecine physique, radiologues, médecins généralistes, chirurgiens orthopédiste non scoliologues.
