Book Synopsis The Movement Muscle Manual by : Jason Curtis
Download or read book The Movement Muscle Manual written by Jason Curtis and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a must-have for fitness professionals and enthusiasts. This unique muscle manual categorizes over 80 muscles into over 40 movements with medically accurate illustrations. Too many muscle manuals concentrate on muscle locations and origins and insertions, creating guides that emphasize an endless list of technical terminology with little functionality. The Movement Muscle Manual is a compact guide that categorizes muscles by the movements they facilitate. Therefore, the reader gains a much better understanding of how muscles assist and oppose each other to create a movement. The difference between good trainers and great trainers is often an in-depth understanding of functional anatomy - a deep understanding of how the body's structures relate to movement and training.

Book Synopsis The Muscular System Manual by : Joseph E. Muscolino
Download or read book The Muscular System Manual written by Joseph E. Muscolino and published by Mosby. This book was released on 2005 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A full-color atlas of the muscles of the human body, this text provides in-depth coverage of skeletal muscles. An easy-to-understand format organizes the material by body region, moving from head to extremities. For each region, there is an overview of the muscles of the region as a whole, with information on how muscles in that region function together and large drawings of the muscles of that entire region. Then each particular muscle in that region is described with name, the origin of that name, Greek and Latin derivations, pronunciation, attachments, actions, a drawing with an arrow showing the muscle's line of pull, innervation to two levels of detail, and arterial supply to two levels of detail. That overview is followed by a practical, step-by-step guide to palpating that muscle, a group muscle illustration to show the muscle's anatomical relationship to nearby muscles, the methodology for learning muscle actions, and clinically useful information for that muscle. Instructor's resources available.
Book Synopsis NeuroKinetic Therapy by : David Weinstock
Download or read book NeuroKinetic Therapy written by David Weinstock and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2012-06-05 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NeuroKinetic Therapy is based on the premise that when an injury has occurred, certain muscles shut down or become inhibited, forcing other muscles to become overworked. This compensation pattern can create pain or tightness. By applying light pressure that the client then resists, the practitioner can evaluate the strength or weakness of each muscle, revealing the sources of injury and retraining the client’s body to remove the compensation patterns—reprogramming the body at the neural level.This easy-to-follow practitioner’s manual presents a series of muscle tests specially designed to uncover and resolve compensation patterns in the body. Author David Weinstock begins by explaining how this approach stimulates the body and mind to resolve pain. Organized anatomically, each section of the book includes clear photographs demonstrating correct positioning of the muscle accompanied by concise explanations and instructions. Labeled anatomical illustrations appear at the end of each section showing the relationships between the muscles and muscle groups. This essential resource is especially useful for physical therapists, chiropractors, orthopedists, and massage therapists looking for new ways to treat underlying causes of pain.

Book Synopsis A Manual Therapist's Guide to Movement by : Gordon Browne
Download or read book A Manual Therapist's Guide to Movement written by Gordon Browne and published by Churchill Livingstone. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Manual Therapist's Guide to Movement examines the use of non-traditional movement systems in a physical therapy setting, focusing on orthopedic conditions or injuries. Browne derives much of the content of this book from two sophisticated movement systems: the Feldenkrais Method and the Chinese martial art of Tai Chi. He explores the intersection between movement and medicine and explains some of the potential applications of these methods to orthopedic conditions in a language understandable to physical therapists and others with a medical, rather than a movement, background." "The unique style of this approach features reader participation in a series of movement lessons. These lessons start in chapter three and include a written verbal description, picture sequences to illustrate each movement variation and a breakdown and discussion of the lesson afterward. These discussions include descriptions and examples of principles of ideal movement, teaching technique, applications to a clinical setting, links to other similar lessons and descriptions of some possible variations of that lesson. In short, the reader experiences the movement subjectively then reads about the design of that particular lesson and for whom it might be useful."--Jacket.
