    Essential Guide to the Cervical Spine is a two-volume, highly illustrated comprehensive guide to assessing, understanding and treating disorders and syndromes of the cervical spine which will give the practitioner confidence to treat and improve their patient care. Volume Two: Clinical Syndromes and Manipulative Approaches comprehensively addresses the diagnosis and treatment of the various and complex syndromes that occur in the cervical spine, from discogenic syndromes to cervical myelopathy and the physical and psychological factors involved in whiplash. A particularly important chapter is devoted to the identification of risk factors in manual treatment of the cervical spine. The last chapter deals with new contributions in the neurobiology of pain and considers chronic neck pain from a biopsychosocial perspective. The international collaboration of leading experts in the field of research and an extensive clinical practice and literature review make this a must-read book for anyone concerned with the prevention and treatment of neck pain. An indispensable guide for those practitioners who want to establish guidelines for the safe and effective treatment of the cervical spine and their patients.

    Très pédagogique, illustré de près de 450 photographies et dessins tous en couleurs, ce manuel d’apprentissage de l’approche manipulative structurelle sur l’ostéopathie musculosquelettique du thorax et des cervicales permet à l’étudiant et au praticien ostéopathe de : – acquérir une démarche globale puis locale, pour arriver à un diagnosticspécifique ; – faire un choix thérapeutique ; – réaliser des techniques efficaces. L’approche diagnostique et technique y est découpée en 3 niveaux pédagogiques : débutant, confirmé et professionnel. La progression pédagogique passe par l’anamnèse, l’observation-palpat... les tests dynamiques, les tests passifs et les corrections à envisager selon le niveau d’expertise du praticien et en fonction de son niveau d’apprentissage ou de pratique avec, comme fil conducteur, la nécessité réaffirmée de garantir la sécurité et le confort du patient. Près de 450 photographies et dessins illustrent la position du patient, celle du praticien, les mises en tension et ajustements. Les textes courts et précis sont introduits par des rappels des notions fondamentales en biomécanique justifiant l’intérêt de la démarche et des techniques utilisées.
