Craniosacral Therapy
Upledger has written a detailed and fascinating book that will be of great utility for anyone who uses his or her hands as diagnostic or therapeutic tools. The book defines the physiology and the anatomy of the cranioscral system, its function in health and its relationship to disease processes. Methods to extend the range and depth of palpatory skills are described in a particular manner. John E. Upledger and Jon D. Vredevoogd ISBN 0-939616-01-7 $50.00
Craniosacral Therapy II - Beyond the Dura
In this sequel to his original groundbreaking work, Dr. Upledger describes each of the cranial nerves and how they can be effectively influenced by craniosacral therapy. He further demonstrates how dysfunctions of the craniosacral system can have a dramatic effect on the behaviour of the individual. The fascial anatomy of the neck is textually and pictorially represented from the perspective of the cranioscral system, as is the temporomandibular joint and TMJ syndrome. Concepts and discoveries that have unfolded in Dr. Upledger’s clinical practice are presented along with some of the more significant physiological concepts supporting his work. More than 120 illustrations and an extensive glossary and index help make this book valuable addition to any professional library. John E. Upledger ISBN 0-939616-05-X $45.00 This text presents a thorough view of classical acupuncture alongside the modern approach. It has several unique features that have contributed to its popularity. First, the author has applied a precise method of translation that allows the clinical experience of both modern and classical Chinese authors to be transmitted directly. Second, the text provides the most consistent information at the lowest cost. Third, it provides a more systematic arrangement of study material. The authors have selected the best discussions available and arranged the text in four systematic sections: Materials and Methods, Channel, Pathways, Channels and Points, and Approaches to Point selection. The Materials selections have been adapted to western practice. However, the techniques presented are those used by Chinese clinicals and include some not usually taught to Western beginners.
