The Power and the Grace
Finally, a book about teaching movement that is as much about the brain and how we learn best, as it is about the movement outcomes we desire. Knowing what we want from a client in terms of posture or movement, is often the easy part. Knowing how to communicate that in a way that is meaningful to them and that creates a true, lasting change is the real challenge. There is so much wisdom in this book to that end. Teaching your clients how to sense themselves more accurately, removes the necessity for restrictive postural cues that are often actually inhibiting normal, functional movement.

The Thorax – An integrated approach
Today we understand that the thorax is part of many integrated and interdependent systems, including the musculoskeletal, neurological, respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive, and urogynecological systems. As such, it should not be considered in isolation from the rest of the body, but rather in relation to it. This well-organized book begins with an in-depth analysis of the anatomy of the thoracic cage including a guide to surface anatomy palpation. This book presents a unique paradigm of evaluation and treatment (The Integrated Systems Model) that has the potential to transform our profession. The existing science and extensive clinical knowledge are melded into a guide for others to better understand the human body, and how to manage their patient’s physical complaints. This book is not only about the thoracic cage, but one that explores the interconnections between the thoracic cage and the rest of the body.
