Description
Functional Myofascial Anatomy offers a fresh approach to understanding the interconnected nature of fascial tissue and its role in movement. By examining the concept of tensegrity and its impact on bodily movements, James Earls presents a new set of tools and vocabulary for describing anatomy in motion.
Earls argues that the study of anatomy should be informed by observation of movement in different bodies and environments, rather than the other way around. This book explores the different theories of myofascial continuities and their application in various situations, using up-to-date research to address important questions for physical and manual therapists.
With a focus on real-life movements such as sports movements and yoga asanas, Functional Myofascial Anatomy provides a comprehensive guide to joint movement, soft tissue control, and myofascial anatomy. This illustrated guide is ideal for healthcare professionals, students, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the complex relationships between fascial tissue and movement.
