Fascia: Clinical Applications for Health and Human Performance

Product Description
When it comes to human performance, the health practitioner and body worker alike need to be firmly grounded in their understanding of the significance of fascia, the role nutrition plays in fascial health, how injuries and disease impact fascia, and rehabilitative techniques to restore functional capacity of the affected tissue. This book starts with a basic overview of fascia and its biological underpinnings, and progresses through clinical treatment applications, nutritional and pharmacological support information, and techniques for managing fascial conditions and injuries.

Review
This is cutting edge information and will be useful for all manual therapists, allopathic doctors, and health/wellnes providers. This text should be required reading for all healthcare professionals. It will help them understand the role connective tissue (fascia) plays in health and wellness. The nutritional information in chapters 12 & 13 and the chapter on water will help healthcare givers understand why proper supplementation and hydration is needed in the tissues.
