内容简介
Ortho-Bionomy is based on the premise that the body
inherently knows how to heal and self-correct, given the
opportunity. This user-friendly self-help guide by one of the
pioneers of the approach presents positions, postures, and
movements designed to release tension and ease pain. Not only are
the techniques simple to perform, but they can be done on one’s
own, without the use of special equipment. Positions for each part
of the body are clearly described in lay terms and illustrated with
photos and drawings. Selected topics include low back, hip and knee
pain, neck, shoulder, and rib releases, repetitive strain injuries,
and arthritic pain in the hands. Quick fixes for sciatica,
suggestions for dealing with menstrual cramps, and gentle movement
exercises to address posture, scoliosis, and flexibility of the
spine are just a few among 150 techniques described. The book also
includes simple movements and exercises to increase ease, function,
strength, and flexibility once the pain has subsided. Rounded out
with human-interest stories and client examples, this accessible
work can be used quickly and effectively by anyone
with pain.
