Book excerpt: For the first time in decades, a major figure in Oriental medicine is offering a book redefining the meridian system upon which the field is based. Author Tetsuro Saito is one of few international figures in shiatsu therapy with schools in Europe and North America. "Shin So Shiatsu: Healing the Deeper Meridian Systems" -- a rich compendium of 40,000 words, 300 figures and charts, and 130 black-and-white photographs -- is presented in two parts. The first book details the history, theory, principles, and techniques of Shin So Shiatsu. The second, a handy "Practitioner's Reference Manual," is intended for use in the treatment room. "Shin So Shiatsu" is for shiatsu therapists, acupuncturists, acupressurists, and practitioners of other energy-based approaches. Anyone who engages with Oriental medicine or is interested in the human energy system will want to read this major revision to a centuries-old approach. Its theoretical and practical uses will make it an essential textbook for schools and workshops. Highly regarded as the "father of shiatsu" in Canada, where he is now based, Saito introduced Canadians to the Japanese art of "finger pressure" in 1971, just as the West was discovering acupuncture. For the past 40 years, Saito has treated thousands of patients, trained hundreds of therapists worldwide, and pursued his own research on energy-based healing with a rare diligence. "Shin So Shiatsu: Healing the Deeper Meridian Systems" represents this lifetime of work. Saito picked up where his mentor, renowned meridian-therapy pioneer Shizuto Masunaga left off when he died in 1981. Until now, Masunaga's "Zen Shiatsu" (Japan Publications Inc, 1977) has been unsurpassed as the primary guide for beginning students and experienced practitioners alike. "Shin So ("deeper level") Shiatsu" is a long-awaited step forward, and promises to reach a far broader audience of healing artists. Saito links the most ancient and forgotten tendrils of Chinese meridian theory with Masunaga's insights, his own remarkable findings, and the invaluable research being undertaken by other contemporary Oriental medical pioneers. Born in Japan and trained there -- first as an engineer and then a shiatsu therapist -- Saito merges the frontiers of science and healing arts to take our view of the human energy matrix far beyond the familiar Traditional Chinese Medicine meridian chart. His alternative is a far more complex, yet comprehensible view of the human body at work. A natural teacher, he illustrates with striking clarity how our road map of the Regular Meridian system has been abridged over time for simplicity's sake. He presents in painstaking detail the complete view of the Regular Meridians as they manifest at three levels of imbalance. He then fully details each of the lesser known, but equally important, Extra, Divergent, Ocean, and Cosmic energy systems, and explains how they interrelate with each other. He grounds us in this theory, then tells us exactly what to do with it. This is the crux of his work: "Shin So Shiatsu" enables any ordinary practitioner to "sense" and precisely trace the multitude of meridian pathways in the human body, to identify the levels at which energy imbalances occur, and to treat those imbalances -- with astonishing results. Practitioners of meridian-based therapies will instantly recognize the veracity and sincerity of this master's approach. "Shin So Shiatsu" is not a beginner's guide: Saito asks his readers to have a basic working knowledge of shiatsu or other meridian-based modalities. But with even a minimum of experience, practitioners from a diversity of backgrounds will quickly be able to integrate the key elements of "Shin So Shiatsu" into their own work.

Book excerpt: This 155 page Meridian A - Z Manual was created to assist practitioners, who are expert in a specific healing art (chiropractic, Rolfing, physical therapy, naturopathic medicine, MD's, DO's, licensed massage), in applying an additional, simple and beneficial treatment for their patients using the meridian system with confidence and accuracy. The meridian system in the human body is the basis for many different healing modalities. There are specific acupuncture points along the meridians. These points are electro-magnetic in character and together they form the matrix within which the body functions. They also act as a network of communication between the physical and the more subtle energetic bodies. The stimulation of specific points along the meridian system relates to the specific area within the body that is in need of healing. A variety of methods may be used to stimulate these points; the use of needles, acupressure, electrical stimulation, micro-current, press pads, or magnets etc. My personal favorite is the use of Low Level Laser Therapy with its amazing regenerative and cellular communication benefits combined with the use of specific points, along the meridians, to achieve some of the most beneficial clinical applications, ever! This process works because the point being stimulated lies on a meridian whose energy also passes through the injured or diseased part of the body; the use of the laser on a specific acupuncture point can be transmitted along the meridian to a place within the body that is in need of healing. This manual will also be beneficial to those who have dedicated their professional careers to that of being an expert licensed acupuncturist by providing an incredibly useful resource (reminder) to use in their day to day treatment procedures.Additional training, reference manuals, products and information can be found at our online store: http://shop-performancepractic.com/

Download or read book Clinical Manual of Electroconvulsive Therapy written by Mehul V. Mankad and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2010-04-13 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is recognized as a proven, effective, and even life-saving intervention in certain mood and thought disorders when other treatments have had little or no effect. Despite the proven efficacy and safety of this standard treatment in psychiatry, its availability is variable. Part of this disparity in access is related to misunderstanding by laypersons regarding the treatment and its potential adverse effects. Adequate education and training of psychiatrists and their support staff are essential to ensuring patients' access to this vital treatment tool. The authors of Clinical Manual of Electroconvulsive Therapy offer this expansive yet reader-friendly volume to help psychiatrists successfully incorporate ECT into their clinical practices. It is also a valuable resource for medical students and psychiatric residents, as well as experienced clinicians and researchers. The book updates the 1985 original and 1998 second edition of Electroconvulsive Therapy: A Programmed Text, and provides readers with a scheduled approach to understanding the fundamental concepts of ECT while offering practical guidance for establishing and maintaining an ECT program. Topics include the history of ECT, indications for use, patient referral and evaluation, the basics of ECT, clinical applications, anesthetics and other medications, seizure monitoring and management, ictal motor and cardiovascular response, adverse effects, and maintenance ECT. Included are detailed descriptions of recent advances including ultra-brief pulse ECT, oxygenation, muscle relaxation, and other modifications that have made this very effective treatment much safer and more acceptable to patients. Currently, it is estimated that more than 100,000 people receive ECT treatments each year in the U.S. Indications for use of ECT are for mood disorders such as major depressive disorder and mania, and thought disorders including schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. Indications for use in other psychiatric disorders and general medical disorders such as Parkinson's disease, which appears to respond especially well to ECT, are reviewed as well. This highly-readable manual is a must-have for the library of any clinician interested in or currently practicing ECT: Provides background information on the origins of psychiatric treatments preceding ECT, including efforts using hydrotherapy and insulin comas Includes an algorithm for the management of ECT seizure adequacy Discusses contraindications as well as the potential adverse effects of ECT, including cognitive changes and cardiovascular complications Provides specific information about ECT device manufacturers, reprintable patient information sheets, and a written informed consent form This clinical manual comprehensively explores and explains the available knowledge regarding ECT -- based on extensive research over the past 70 years -- in order to help potential ECT clinicians make informed choices about the development and management of their ECT program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to the treatment of pain from common sports injuries and other physical activities • Contains at-home techniques to promote healing and self-awareness of the body’s musculature • Explains how to relieve pain using manual massage in conjunction with small physio balls • Includes an illustrated treatment reference section organized by region of the body The vast majority of physical injuries incurred by active people begin with muscular injuries that are not addressed by the conventional medical approach to orthopedic care. Injuries of this type are generally too minor to warrant splinting, casting, or medication and often do not prevent participation in physical activities. They do, however, produce noticeable discomfort and, over time, frequently lead to more severe injuries. In Trigger Point Self-Care Manual Donna Finando presents methods for the healing and prevention of musculature injuries. She identifies the causes of and remedies for areas of muscular tightness and restriction and details many self-care techniques, including precise self-massage, stretching, and the use of wet heat and/or ice. In the fully illustrated reference section, organized by body part, she identifies the pain associated with trigger points in each muscle of the body and provides instructions for palpating, treating, and stretching the muscle in order to release it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 70s, Shizuto Masunaga Sensei, a great master and the creator of Keiraku shiatsu (meridian shiatsu) conducted four-month correspondence courses. He sent his students the four manuals he had written to purpose. Given their valuable content, we decided to translate them from Japanese, believing them to be of great help to students, practitioners, and teachers of shiatsu alike. This fourth and last volume illustrates clinical shiatsu, examining a series of common “ailments” and recommending the most appropriate meridian treatment, from the illustration of the symptoms to “how to assess” and “how to cure”. Each section is supported by figures giving the meridian pathways. The final week also considers shiatsu for children and beauty. The concepts are accessible to everyone and are useful for we as practitioners and for the recipients we practice on. Shizuto Masunaga was truly a master, and his words always have something to teach us.
