The Concise Book of the Moving Body Paperback
by Chris Jarmey, Thomas W. Myers
Paperback
Description
"The Concise Book of the Moving Body" has been written for the student and early practitioner of anatomy, massage/bodywork, physical therapy, chiropractic, medicine, physiotherapy, sports therapy, or any other health-related field.
Containing full-colour illustrations, the book is a compact reference guide, clearly detailing anatomical orientation, tissues, in-depth information on joints, and the physiology of bones and muscles.
Composite drawings of the body illustrate the major skeletal muscles (posterior and anterior, superficial and deep); the origin, insertion, innervation, and action for each muscle is supplied.
Finally, a chapter by Thomas W. Myers serves as a three-dimensional bridge between the study of anatomy and its practical application.
Based on his book "Anatomy Trains" (Elsevier Science), he presents a unique "whole systems' view of myofascial/locomotor anatomy, and explains how patterns of strain communicate through the myofascial 'webbing', contributing to postural compensation and movement stability.
