This book is for the current Cranial Osteopathic practitioner. It looks into Cranial Osteopathy from a more profound 'inner' approach to help the practitioner to understand Cranial Osteopathy from a deeper and broader perspective. The book starts by taking the reader on an 'inner' journey of understanding more about themselves as the practitioner, discussing the 'osteopathic toolbox', and the need to be 'inner centred' when diagnosing and treating. It then looks at aspects of diagnosis - of tissue and fluid states - giving the reader several 'inner' considerations which they should apply when assessing a patient. The book then looks at the whole body and using an 'inner' approach to assess a...
Andrew Taylor Still, the founder of Osteopathy, said that our science is young, but the principles or laws that govern it are as ancient as God and as life itself. Knowing those principles and laws is what makes the difference between a novice osteopath and an elite one—between someone who treats a specific type of patient and someone who is prepared to treat all patients in the world, in any situation. That is why this book speaks much more about principles and laws than about techniques, more about mindset and spirit than about lesion chains. To say that osteopathy has evolved is only half true—nothing can go beyond its foundational principles. Therefore, that is the direction we must move toward: a return to what the old doctor taught, the genesis of Osteopathy. Redefining our modern osteopathic paradigm is essential if we want to reach many more people and be as effective as possible. Reading this book will open a spiritual door to our art that can never be closed again. We are entering the best times for our discipline. Seeing greater and better results will become part of our everyday reality. For that, we need the V Law.
