Description

Trauma: An Osteopathic ApproachThis well researched, richly illustrated book begins with an overview of the biomechanics of trauma. The authors demonstrate how an osteopathic based mechanical approach to trauma can be applied to the entire body, with a special focus on the phenomenon of whiplash. From here they move on to a functional anatomical approach, focusing on the skull and other aspects of the central nervous system, as well as the structures that surround and protect it.

This well-researched, richly illustrated book begins with an overview of the biomechanics of trauma. The authors demonstrate how an osteopathic-based mechanical approach to trauma can be applied to the entire body, with a special focus on the phenomenon of whiplash. From here they move on to a functional-anatomical approach, focusing on the skull and other aspects of the central nervous system, as well as the structures that surround and protect it. Finally, they view trauma from the perspective of how it affects the different tissues and systems of the body, including the osteoarticular, visceral, and vascular systems, and the various sequelae that can occur in each of these systems.

Having presented an osteopathic interpretation of trauma, the authors apply some of their own unique methods of osteopathic diagnosis, particularly with regard to those structures that are often affected by trauma: the dural tube, cranial sutures, craniofacial membranous junction, mediastinum, and spleen. The book concludes with a description of manual techniques devised by the authors to treat some of the more recalcitrant sequelae of trauma.

'The tissues possess an infallible memory for trauma . . Everything is recorded in them.'

'A certain progression of testing and evaluation is essential to demonstrate the unexpected effects of traumatic sequelae, particularly if the injury is an old one.'

'Tissues can only be treated if the osteopath respects them. The right key can easily unlock the door.' 

Jean-Pierre Barral & Alain Croibier

Extremely satisfied

Very nice. I am extremely happy with them. I used painters tape to hold the bracket in place while I screwed it in, worked like a charm 😁 holds a lot of items

Good enough
Size: 15x6.8, Color: Black
As cheap as the day is long but functional. These are basically made out of highly compressed paper and finished to feel like wood. The first one I put up was good with a little tilt to the back which is fine. The second one has a more severe tilt and I had to bend the bracket down to decently level it out. They are sturdy enough to hold quite a bit of weight and look good for what they are. I'm not impressed but I'm also not disappointed, the price is a bit steep for what they are but they serve their purpose.

Great, but bring your own inserts.
Size: 24x7.9, Color: Black
These work great, easy to install. Happy with them. Only problem was the instructions say don’t use the include inserts on wallboard, which meant I had to go out and purchase my own. That’s OK, because I like to use inserts I trust.

Love the shelves, great quality and design. They are very sturdy and perfect for my need. I ordered wine glass holders from Amazon and attached them to the shelves. Impressed and amazed at the look.
