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.
