| Abstract
|
:
|
"Cranial manipulation is a fast-growing area of manual therapy practice. In the new edition of Cranial Manipulation Theory and Practice, Leon Chaitow, together with six expert contributors, presents the latest thinking on the use of this valuable approach, and the most up-to-date research evidence to support its use." "Osteopathic biomechanical and biodynamic concepts are thoroughly examined, as are chiropractic and dental approaches involving cranial and cranio-facial manipulation. The supporting CD-ROM contains the entire text as well as video footage demonstrating exercises and techniques. Icons in the text indicate where there is a video clip on the CD-ROM to illustrate what is being described."--Jacket.
