Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Motion with Christ is a 52 entry devotional book that is centered on relating the world of physical therapy and rehabilitation to our walks with Jesus Christ. I believe that God can been seen and understood in everything we do or experience! This devotional is the culmination of 3 years of physical therapy school during which God revealed lessons to better love and understand him, through these concepts of rehabilitation and the human body. Our bodies are amazingly created by a God who has become increasingly fascinating and mysterious the more I learn. In the rehabilitation world, health care staff and patients are in a unique position to be able to see and interact with these amazing concepts of the human body. Whether you are a physical therapy clinician, student, or patient this devotional is for you! My prayer is that this book will challenge the way clinicians practice, students learn, and patients recover, all together changing the way you live your life, bringing you into a closer, more intentional relationship with Jesus. God bless!

Download or read book The Fasciae written by Serge Paoletti and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fasciae comprise a wide variety of body tissues including the membranes, ligaments, tendons, and mesenteries. These tissues are all derived from the mesoderm, which undergoes coiling or rolling movements during embryonic development. This is the origin of the inherent micro-movements, or motility, that are so important in many osteopathic approaches to diagnosis and treatment. The fasciae are found at every level of the body and constitute a basic element of human physiology. They serve as the body's first line of defense, acting independently of the central nervous system, which is why they are referred to as a "peripheral brain." From a mechanical point of view, the fasciae are organized in chains to defend the body against restrictions. When a restriction goes beyond a specific threshold, the fasciae respond by modifying their viscoelasticity, changing the collagenic fibers, and transforming healthy fascial chains into lesional chains. The fasciae keep a record of every trauma that causes a change in motility. Through the sensitivity of trained hands, we are able to perceive movements on a micro-level and can thus detect motility disturbances, which reveal the medical history of a patient. Remedial techniques, adapted to each patient, can restore normal motility. In this way, fascial disturbances can be overcome, allowing the body to recover its normal physiological functions. For this reason, we can say that the health of every person is reflected in large part in the fasciae. The Fasciae: Anatomy, Dysfunction and Treatment is the first book to organize the wealth of available information concerning fascial tissues from the fields of embryology, anatomy, histology, and pathology. It describes the roles and mechanisms of the fasciae, and details appropriate testing and treatment techniques. The book is richly illustrated with color and black and white drawings throughout.
