LUMBAR SPINE MECHANICAL DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPY VOL 1 n 2


 THE LUMBAR SPINE - MECHANICAL DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPY
When Robin McKenzie’s The Lumbar Spine, Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy was published in 1981, it was greeted with scepticism and occasionally with ridicule. In the ensuing years, however, as more clinicians became familiar with the assessment process and treatment methods it offered, physical doctors, chiropractors and their patients discovered the value of these apparently simple concepts. Since then much has changed in the world of spinal care, and the confidence of medical practitioners in The McKenzie Method worldwide is reflected in the large body of scientific evidence supporting and validating those ideas – this new book reflects the literature that has accumulated in the interim.

This long-awaited second edition has been thoroughly updated and considerably expanded. It contains a wealth of background material about lumbar spinal problems both specific and non-specific. It explores in depth, the non-specific syndromes – derangements, dysfunction and postural – previously described by McKenzie (1983).
The Descriptions are expanded, more detailed and slightly amended. Also explained is the epidemiology of back pain, the role of the disc, the conceptual model behind the derangement syndrome, clinical reasoning, as well as offering a thorough review of the literature relating to the approach.

Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy has always placed the patient at the centre of therapeutic engagement. This is reinforced by discussion of the management and involvement of the patient to the fullest extent possible, placing great emphasis on self-management. Clinical descriptions of serious spinal pathology and other specific disorders are presented. Operational definitions and a glossary provide clear clinical descriptions of the mechanical syndromes and other spinal conditions.

Robin McKenzie and co-author Stephen May, who in 2000 collaborated in producing The Human Extremities: Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy, have produced anther evidence-based and clinically relevant text for the new century. Because of its comprehensive, contemporary and detailed nature, this book provides an authoritative text that is required reading for all health professionals involved in the management of back pain patients.
In the Foreword for this landmark edition, Professor Nikolai Bogduk, Professor of Pain Medicine at the University of Newcastle Royal Hospital, accurately summarises the place The McKenzie Method occupies in the new millennium.

THREE DIMENSIONAL TREATMENT FOR SCOLIOSIS (SCHROTH METHOD)



2007 | PDF | 292 pages | 151.52 MB
Three-dimensional scoliosis therapy has for decades played an established role in the conservative management of mild and even of severe scoliosis. As well as describing every aspect of the pathologically curved, deformed spine, this textbook incorporates an extensive programme of exercises that can be tailored specifically to the needs of the individual patient. As outlined in Three-Dimensional Scoliosis Therapy: The Schroth Breathing Orthopaedic System, correction of the spinal deformity is based on a special breathing technique and active muscle stretching, as well as on elongation, detorsion and reduction of lordosis. The provision of psychological support for the patient is also emphasised as a key element. Christa Lehnert-Schroth born 1924 in Meissen She worked as a physiotherapist for about 50 years with scoliosis patients and further developed her mother's breathing orthopaedic technique with great success. Between 1961 and 1995 Christa Lehnert-Schroth - always surrounded by physicians - was director of the private Katharina-Schroth-Klinik in Bad Sobernheim/Germany. In many lectures, articles, seminars and films for physiotherapists and medical doctors in addition to recorded discs for patient's training at home she illustrated her mother's special method for scoliosis assuring well being of many patients and in honor her mother's legacy.
