Download or read book Foundations of Morphodynamics in Osteopathy written by Torsten Liem and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 35 chapters written by the editors and a team of internationally renowned contributors, the book covers the underlying principles of osteopathic palpation from a biodynamic and 'morphodynamic' perspective, and their application in the cranial field and the spinal cord. It emphasises the importance of considering not just the patient's physical self, but also the inner consciousness. It teaches how to assess tissue-energy characteristics, and to use this understanding in managing the whole patient. The work discusses biophysical, neurobiological and psychological interactions as well as the interplay of developmental dynamics and further epigenetic influences on the organism. As well as the primary respiratory mechanism, various biological rhythms play an important role within osteopathic treatment; the book explores new insights that flow from chronobiology and rhythm research. All osteopathic practice develops on conceptual foundations. Acknowledging the importance in the practice of osteopathy of such theoretical underpinning, the book discusses osteopathy with regard to the development of paradigms within the healing arts as well as from various philosophical viewpoints - such as postmodern, system-theoretical, Goethian and phenomenological. It examines thoroughly the multi-layered dynamics of development of human beings interacting with their environment. The resulting implications for therapeutic interaction as well as principles of diagnosis and treatment form the core of the book. These fundamental principles are then specifically applied to the cranial sphere. This section focuses primarily on the treatment of the brain, as well as the developmental dynamics of the relations of the midline, cranial bones, dural structures, vessels and cranial nerves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the words of the Author: In this book I'll tell you the story of how I discovered osteopathy while I was already a medical student, what I learned from my patients over the years, how I founded a center for osteopathic teaching and treatment, and how I reached the point where I'm helping to train the next generation of osteopathic practitioners and our colleagues in related fields in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. In the process I may reveal what many people possibly suspect, that physicians are not gods. Along the way, I'll tell you many stories of healing. I'll give you some idea of the how's and why's of osteopathy. For anyone who wants a high level of wellness; for anyone who wants care that fulfills the ancient physician's principle "first do no harm"; for health-care professionals who want to learn a safe and effective way of helping patients; and for patients who still suffer despite years of medical treatment, it is my passionate desire to offer a special gift: the gift of hope and some knowledge about how to proceed. There is a better way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Osteopathy is on everyone's lips. In order to detect their patients' problems, osteopaths employ comprehensive skill and knowledge regarding the structure and function of the human body. A little-known fact, however, is that the osteopathic techniques and principles are wonderfully suited for self-treatment, as only the patient himself has a direct link to his inner self. The first part of the book explains the principles of osteopathic treatment. The book's main part is then the "osteopathic medicine cabinet" with 45 exercises for all areas of the body, from headaches to ankle sprains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, a 60-person team of internationally renowned editors and authors presents a textbook of osteopathic medicine that is oriented towards clinical symptoms. Introductory chapters on history, philosophy and the spread of osteopathy are followed by a presentation of its scientific basis that clearly demonstrates how firmly osteopathy is rooted in science. Further chapters cover osteopathic research, diagnosis and principles of treatment. Two parts on therapeutic strategies in osteopathic practice form the core of this book. The first is divided into regions of the body, the second into clinical specialties that offer opportunities for osteopathic treatment. In both clinical parts, osteopathic therapy is presented in the entirety in which it is actually practiced - without the common but artificial separation of parietal, visceral and craniosacral treatment. First, the clinical symptom is explained from a medical perspective, then the osteopathic perspective and and treatment is presented. Thus, the title is not only suitable for conveying a profound understanding of osteopaths in training, be they doctors or non-medical practitioners, but also as a clinical reference of osteopathic medicine for everyday treatment.

This book was released on 2015-05-02 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THERE ARE OVER 43,000 OSTEOPATHIC physicians in the United States, providing a system of medical care based on a philosophy that the human body has self-healing abilities. In order to facilitate those abilities, the osteopathic doctor practices a "whole person" approach. While the goal of traditional medical doctors is to treat specific symptoms, osteopathic physicians concentrate on treating the patient as a whole. It is important to make this distinction. Osteopaths, who are trained outside the United States are not physicians. Their practice is limited to non-invasive manual therapies, including touch, physical manipulation, stretching and massage to increase the mobility of joints, to relieve muscle tension, and to help energize the body's own healing mechanisms. Those trained in the United States are known as osteopathic physicians (or Doctors of Osteopathy or DOs), and they practice the entire scope of modern medicine. They receive all the training and provide the same healthcare services as medical doctors (MDs). DOs understand how all the body's systems are interconnected and how each one affects the others. They are trained to identify and correct structural problems, which can assist the body's natural tendency toward health and self-healing. They also help patients develop attitudes and lifestyles that help prevent disease. Those who choose a career in osteopathic medicine are people who value taking a holistic approach to healing. As society shifts towards a greater understanding of what makes us sick and what our bodies are capable of, osteopathic physicians are seeing an increase in the number of patients they see. Osteopathy in the US is fully accepted as a mainstream medical career. Today, millions of Americans have chosen this type of individualized, compassionate care, and have made DOs their primary care physicians. In terms of training and education, osteopathic physicians (DOs) are actually indistinguishable from medical doctors (MDs). They are trained in similar schools, go through the same number of years, learn the procedures, and pass the same examinations. They have the same rights and privileges to practice medicine. The difference is in how they choose to treat the patient. When MDs might reach for the prescription pad, a DO might prescribe a change of diet or environment instead. Like their MD colleagues, DOs can specialize in over a hundred different areas of practice. Because of their total-person philosophy, many gravitate to specialties in primary care fields such as family medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics, and emergency medicine. DOs are also specially trained in manual medicine for treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. This makes them uniquely qualified to specialize in rehabilitation and sports medicine. In fact, many DOs are employed as professional sports and college team physicians. DOs have an extensive scientific background. They must excel in science classes like biology, chemistry, and anatomy. They learn all of the traditional medical techniques, but they also receive additional training in muscular-skeletal manipulation. They also complete a residency in a specialty. Osteopathic physicians spend a significant amount of time and money on medical school, dedicating upwards of seven years of their life to study in some cases. As a result, they do have a higher-than-average median salary. Earnings can reach well into the six figures, making it quite an attractive job for compassionate individuals with a love of healing and science. There is a growing shortage of healthcare professionals in this country. This makes it an ideal time to get into the medical field, particularly the area of osteopathic medicine, which is set to see phenomenal growth throughout this upcoming decade.
