  • Adolescence et psychopathologie

    • 9th Edition
    • Daniel Marcelli + 2 more
    • French
    « L’adolescence est l’âge où chaque individu doit pouvoir se «soucier de lui-même» ou en d’autres termes, développer à son propre égard une connaissance de soi et de ses limites à l’intérieur desquelles la capacité à «prendre soin de soi» est un facteur fondamental de santé, physique et mentale, actuelle et future. Cela ne se fait ni en un jour ni par la grâce d’une génération spontanée. L’objectif le plus ambitieux de cet ouvrage, qui fête ses 35 ans et accueille de nouveaux collaborateurs, est d’apporter à chaque professionnel au contact d’adolescents en difficulté les connaissances et les repères lui permettant de répondre au mieux à cette priorité. » Daniel Marcelli, Alain Braconnier À l’occasion de cette 9e édition, la structure a été entièrement remaniée avec l’ajout de nombreux nouveaux chapitres. L’ouvrage se présente désormais sous 4 grandes parties : les bases théoriques et généralités, les grands regroupements syndromiques (approche nosographique et psychopathologie des conduites), l’adolescent dans son environnement et enfin la thérapeutique. Cette nouvelle édition tient compte de la sortie du DSM-5.

  • Manipulation des disques intervertébraux

    • 1st Edition
    • Jean-Pierre Barral + 2 more
    • French
    Affectant une large population, les pathologies discales sont un motif fréquent de consultation en médecine générale ou spécialisée. Au fil des années, la prise en charge des ces pathologies a subi de gros changements, passant d’un traitement chirurgical quasi systématique à une approche thérapeutique beaucoup moins invasive. Dans de nombreux cas de pathologies discales, l’ostéopathie peut être d’un grand secours. Ce livre présente les données anatomiques, physiologiques et mécaniques pour aider à comprendre les différents phénomènes qui affectent les disques. L’imagerie, les aspects diagnostiques et thérapeutiques des discopathies sont aussi abordés. Richement illustré de dessins anatomiques et de photos de mises en situation, il détaille de nombreuses manipulations et techniques. En plus de soulager la douleur des patients de manière locale, elles permettent d’appréhender plus globalement ce qui se passe dans l’organisme pour identifier les causes sous-jacentes d’une pathologie discale, lesquelles peuvent être nombreuses et diverses (perturbations mécaniques, causes métaboliques, problèmes vasculaires, pression psychosociale…). Cet ouvrage s’adresse à tous les ostéopathes, kinésithérapeutes ou médecins qui souhaitent une vision plus globale des différents paramètres qui entraînent ou favorisent une pathologie discale. Il propose une prise en charge originale, ainsi que des conseils et des recommandations, tant pour les thérapeutes que pour les patients.
