Myofascial Induction(TM) - An anatomical approach to the treatment of
fascial dysfunction describes the properties of the fascial network and
provides therapeutic solutions for different types of fascial
dysfunction. The material is presented in two volumes:
Volume 1 analyzes in depth the theoretical aspects related to fascia and
focuses on the therapeutic procedures of Myofascial Induction Therapy
(MIT(TM)) for the upper body; Volume 2 summarizes and expands on the
theoretical aspects and explains the therapeutic procedures of MIT for
the lower body.
Volume 1 is divided into two parts:
Part 1 - The Science and Principles of Myofascial Induction and
Part 2 - Practical Applications of Myofascial Induction - the Upper
Body.
Part 1 defines the fascia as a complex biological system before
discussing its multiple characteristics.
Part 2 is the practical part. Here the reader will find a wide range of
manual therapeutic procedures which can be selected and used to build up
the MIT treatments. These processes are explained in detail and are
richly illustrated, in full color, with diagrams and photographs of
their practical application in the body and in the treated samples of
dissected tissues.
Each chapter opens with an introduction offering to the reader some
philosophical background as a reminder that philosophy allows us to
relate the strictly scientific with the empirical. Praxis and empiricism
are the basis of science.
The author invites you to join the scientific fascial adventure that
allows us to uncover areas of knowledge which may have been forgotten or
which are not yet recognized as being related and which might still
reveal relevant information. Once discovered, these facts can help us to
better understand the kinesis of our body and so help the individual to
change their body image and to improve their quality of life.
