Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The burning. The sore heel. The pain of those first morning steps. When you suffer from plantar fasciitis, even the simplest tasks can seem unbearable-and the treatment can often feel as frustrating as the ailment itself. However, treating plantar fasciitis doesn't have to be a slow and painful process. In most cases, in fact, treatment can be simple, inexpensive, and highly effective. Dr. Colin Dombroski has helped thousands of patients alleviate plantar fasciitis, and now he draws on his personal experiences and painstaking research to provide a comprehensive guide to managing, treating, and preventing PF without breaking the bank. In The Plantar Fasciitis Plan, Dr. Dombroski identifies and explains causes, symptoms, and risk factors for plantar fasciitis; teaches PF sufferers and doctors home-healing techniques; and delves into treatments for cases of PF that are harder to cure. Along the way, he'll provide tips for staying active, advice on spending the least to get the best results, and pointers on making the most of any treatment. Plantar fasciitis can be a painful, distressing, and debilitating problem-but thanks to Dr. Dombroski, it doesn't have to be a permanent one.

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.

This book was released on 2014-01-18 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a reference handbook focusing on diseases like Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome and other heritable soft connective tissue diseases. The book presents detailed information for both basic scientists and for clinicians seeing patients. It is also a stepping stone for new investigations and studies that goes beyond the facts about the composition and biochemistry of the connective tissue and extracellular matrix, as the authors connect individual components to specific aspects of various soft tissue disorders and to the actual or potential treatment of them. Progress in Heritable Soft Connective Tissue Diseases features very prominent physicians and scientists as contributors who bring their most recent discoveries to the benefit of readers. Their expertise will help clinicians with proper diagnosis of sometimes elusive and uncommon heritable diseases of soft connective tissues. This book also offers an update on the pathophysiology of these diseases, including an emphasis on unifying aspects such as connections between embryonic development of the different types of connective tissues and systems, and the role of TGF-beta in development and physiology of soft tissues. This new set of data explains, at least in part, why many of these disorders are interconnected, though the primary pathophysiological events, such as gene mutations, may be different for each disorder.
