Orthopedic Massage for Complicated
Cervical Conditions. This DVD addresses complicated cervical conditions such as whiplash, and thoracic outlet. It shows you a unique technique of pelvic stabilization for lower back pain and sciatica. Emphasis is placed on structural integration, by releasing shortened muscle groups and strengthening weak and over-stretched opposing muscles, rather than simply rubbing on painful symptoms. See a unique frozen hip joints release using a novel plunging technique. One of the leading causes of SI joint pain is because of adhesions in the ball and socket joint of the hip capsule. At about 10 degrees of hip extension the ilium is forced into flexion on the involved side because the femur is superglued into the socket. This puts stress on the SI joint and results in sprains and strains in that area. James' plunging technique in releasing the joint capsule will eliminate the underlying cause of the SI joint dysfunction immediately, and when the muscle groups around the hip are balanced back out the patient will remain pain free.

Orthopedic Massage for Complicated Shoulder Conditions Through collaborations with worldwide medical practitioners, and an intense self study of anatomy and pathology, James was able to discover the missing link for immediate release of complicated frozen shoulders. After being challenged with many clients with difficult frozen shoulders, James observed that at the articulating cartilage of ball and socket joints was a thick layer of fascia. Due to repetitive movements in the shoulder joints certain muscle groups become strong and short while opposing muscle groups become overstretched and weak. This eventually leads not only to joint degeneration and resulting arthritis as the cartilage wears down, but also limits range of motion causing a formation of adhesions in the joint capsule itself. The articulating fascia acts as superglue and literally glues the humerus to the scapula. The deep fascial adhesions however can be melted, in almost a miraculous discovery James was able to use the head of the humerus in the shoulder to melt the fascia using very gentle movements. This technique has been able to release thousands of complicated frozen shoulders in literally one session.

Treat Your Own Knees By Brad Walker The prominence of knee references in the English language; knee jerk reaction, the bee’s knees, knee deep; should be hint enough to the importance of the knee. The knee, at first sight, may appear to be a simple joint; however, it is actually quite complex. This complexity also makes the knee susceptible to many injuries. The knee is often overlooked until something goes wrong. Healthy knees are generally happy knees, and keeping the knees healthy is much better than trying to rehabilitate them after an injury.

A Practical Guide to
Acu-points
by Chris Jarmey and Ilaira Bouratinos An understanding of acu-points is vital not only for acupuncturists but also for bodyworkers. This user-friendly manual contains current, comprehensive information for both groups, with special emphasis on how shiatsu and tuina therapists can best utilize “point knowledge” in their practice. Renowned experts Chris Jarmey and Ilaira Bouratinos use succinct text, a well-organized framework, and detailed color anatomical illustrations to clarify the complexities of acu-points. In keeping with normal practice, the authors give the precise anatomical location of a point and illustrate it with a dot, along with alternative locations where relevant. However, the book goes further by delineating the larger area where the point can be activated by pressure, gua sha, and other means. In addition, it explains the optimum physical position for treatment via acupuncture, acupressure, and other strategies, as treatment positions can vary according to the method of point stimulation. The book also documents the distribution of sensation resulting from point stimulation, and differentiates between pressure and needle application where appropriate. Read more details

A Manual of Acupuncture, is just such a book. Painstakingly researched over many years by Peter Deadman, editor-in-chief of The Journal of Chinese Medicine, and colleagues Mazin Al-Khafaji and Kevin Baker, this book has become the primary reference in the West for the study of acupuncture points and channels. With the subtle use of color to illustrate the acupuncture points and anatomical features, the new second edition of A Manual of Acupuncture is even more attractive and user-friendly than the first. Each point is located in accordance with the most exacting anatomical standards to be found in any Western textbook. For each point there is a dedicated drawing, followed by regional body drawings. The quality of the 500 drawings is far superior to those in any other TCM text. There are also practical pointers for finding and needling the points, and cautionary information about what to avoid. In addition to point indexes by their English and pinyin names, there is an index identifying every part of the body reached by each of the channels, and separate indexes of point indications listed according to both TCM and biomedical symptoms. |

Wisdom in
the Body: The Craniosacral Approach to
Essential Health by Michael Kern
Accumulations of life stresses — physical injuries, emotional and psychological stresses, birth traumas, and toxicity — can become imprinted in the tissues, acting like a videotape that is replayed whenever stimulated. Biodynamic craniosacral therapy aims to resolve the trapped forces that underlie and drive these trauma-based patterns of disease and suffering in body and mind. Wisdom in the Body teaches practitioners to develop finely tuned skills of hands-on palpation and perception to sense the body’s subtle rhythms and patterns of inertia or congestion, with the goal of ending trauma and facilitating the expression of the breath of life. A comprehensive introduction to this practice, the book draws on the insights of pioneers like Drs. W. G. Sutherland and Franklyn Sills to explain the key principles about the body’s natural intention to heal and how this capability can be encouraged. A valuable resource for students, practitioners, and the lay reader, the book also includes a foreword by Dr. Franklyn Sills.

Cupping Massage
Cupping is a special treatment of Chinese traditional treasures of medicines. Cupping is very popular for its virtues of its simplicity, low charges, convenient handling, effective clinic treatment, obvious health care and no toxic side effect. Through the use of cups, Cupping makes the skin congest, blood stagnate and blister by adsorbing the cups on the positions owing to the negative intensity of pressure caused by removing the air in the cups through burning or taking the air out, thus motivates the function of the channel, meridians or vessels in the cupping points and makes the blood and breath vigorous so as to serve the purpose of protecting and curing diseases.

Active
Isolated
Stretching
This 45 mins video contains Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) techniques developed by Aaron Mattes. AIS attempts to isolate particular muscle and stretching the muscle for 1-2 seconds as opposed to the conventional prolonged 10-60 seconds. The argument is prolonged static stretching actually decreases the blood flow within the tissue creating localized ischemia and lactic acid buildup. Stretches up to 2 seconds allows the target muscle to optimally lengthen without triggering the protective stretch reflex and subsequent reciprocal antagonistic muscle contraction. Lance Mattes clearly demonstrates self stretching techniques for neck & shoulder, arm & hand, leg & foot. The techniques are useful for everyone, therapists, sports athlete, and patient. This book is a great companion to Aaron Mattes' book. |
