Fascial Release for Structural Balance, Revised Edition
by James Earls Thomas MyersThis thoroughly revised edition of the authoritative reference Fascial Release for Structural Balance brings the book up to date with all of the most current research on the role of fascia and myofascia in the body, and how treatment affects it. This edition takes advantage of more sophisticated testing to explore in greater detail the relationship between anatomical structure and function, making it an even more essential guide. Offering a detailed introduction to structural anatomy and fascial release therapy, including postural analysis, complete technique descriptions, and the art of proper assessment of a patient through "bodyreading," the book features 150 color photographs that clearly demonstrate each technique. The authors, both respected bodywork professionals, give any bodywork practitioner using manual therapy—including physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, myofascial and trigger point therapists, and massage therapists—the information they need to deliver effective treatments and create long-lasting, systemic change in clients' shape and structure.Fascia, the soft tissue surrounding muscles, bones, and organs, plays a crucial role in supporting the body. By learning to intelligently manipulate it, a bodyworker or therapist can help with many chronic conditions that their clients suffer from, providing immediate pain relief as well as reducing the strains that may contribute to the patient's ongoing aches and pains, leading to rapid, effective, and lasting pain relief. James Earls and Thomas Meyers argue that approaching the fascia requires "a different eye, a different touch, and tissue-specific techniques."

Fasciolosis
by John P. DaltonFasciolosis is a major global infection of livestock causing both huge losses to the agricultural community and affecting human health as a food-borne disease. Fully updated throughout, this new edition continues to cover the life cycle, biology, and development of the parasite; clinical pathology, immunology, diagnosis and vaccine development; and emergence, cause and mechanisms of drug resistance. It reviews the temperate liver fluke Fasciola hepatica, together with molecular, biochemical, control, and epidemiologial aspects of the tropical liver fluke F. gigantica. Many fundamental advances have taken place in the last two decades, but of particular importance has been the mapping of the draft genome of Fasciola. In addition, comprehensive advances in transcriptomics, proteomics and glycomics have been made, and the book therefore pays particular attention to these developments with the addition of brand-new chapters. Also covering the impact these parasites have had on the global human population, their distribution and their ecology, this book provides a comprehensive and accessible resource for scientists, researchers and students of medical and veterinary parasitology.

Fast Forward: The Hard Road to Football Success
by Andrew ColeFast Forward is a thought-provoking and gripping autobiography about Andrew Cole's determination to succeed against all the odds.Misconceptions have stalked Andrew Cole like a hatchet-man defender determined to cut him down to size. In the world of modern-day football, his reserved demeanour was often interpreted as surly intransigence. Alongside an aptitude for goalscoring, it was widely believed, ran an attitude problem. In Fast Forward, a candid and inspirational autobiography, Cole finally puts his side of the story.The son of a Windrush-generation Jamaican miner from a humble background in Nottingham, he was viewed as a one-man awkward squad by George Graham and Jimmy Hill before Kevin Keegan identified him as the man to bring goals to Newcastle. However, only when Alex Ferguson, his 'second father', took him to Manchester United did Cole begin to belie his image, amassing goals, medals and England caps. Two decades on from United's historic Treble, he reveals the inside track on Eric Cantona and David Beckham, Roy Keane and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer .After a career spent challenging assumptions and adversity, he had to summon fresh reserves of resilience to battle illness and depression.(P) 2019 Hodder & Stoughton Ltd

Fast Track Surgery in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty: New Standards
by Michael T. Hirschmann Rafael J. Sierra Nanne P. Kort Martin R. ThalerThis book brings together a comprehensive set of chapters that cover the basic principles of fast track surgery, clinical enhancements, but also important aspects of project management and change management in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty. Although the value of care pathways and fast track surgery are probably well known by almost everyone, there are still too many differences in arthroplasty care not only around the world, but also within countries. How can it be that the fast track principles are implemented so poorly? Probably because it looks so simple, yet it's so complex that many doctors don't know where to start. This handy book, published in collaboration with ESSKA, provides an easy-to-consult guide that summarize the most important notions in a concise, accessible way.

Faster Cures: Accelerating the Future of Health
by Michael MilkenPartly a memoir and partly a recent history of medicine, the definitive account of Michael Milken’s lifetime work to accelerate medicine's evolution from a dark past to a bright future.What if cleaning early-stage cancers from your body could become as routine as going to the dentist to clean your teeth, or if a single vaccine could protect you against multiple viruses, or if gene editing could eliminate many birth defects and slow the aging process? Mike Milken believes these, and many other advances, are within reach.Beginning with a description of the 1950s civilization and culture that helped shape Milken's early views, Faster Cures traces the life-extending acceleration of progress in medical research, public health, and clinical treatments over the seven decades since Milken’s childhood—and shows how he helped transform the process of developing disease cures. Among many examples, he recognized the promise of immunology more than twenty-five years ago and provided crucial support for the emergence of immunotherapy as a powerful life-saving treatment.Detailing his unique personal journey from a curious boy with an insatiable thirst for knowledge to his storied careers in finance and health, this book focuses on the events that made Milken what Fortune magazine called “The Man Who Changed Medicine.” The combined influences of social upheaval in the 1960s and family medical crises in the 1970s propelled him to dual quests on Wall Street and in medical research.Known worldwide as a legendary financier, philanthropist, medical research innovator, and public health advocate, Milken tells fascinating anecdotes and explains his inspiring crusade to accelerate cures and treatments so that more people around the world can live longer, healthier, and more meaningful lives.

Fasziale Schmerzen und Funktionsstörungen: Diagnostik und Therapie
by Rolf Eichinger Kerstin KlinkIn der Arztpraxis suchen oft Patienten Rat, deren Beschwerden funktioneller Natur sind und nicht unmittelbar über Labor oder Bildgebung einer Organerkrankung zugeordnet werden können. Zahlreiche dieser Störungen wie Schmerzen, Schwindel, Tinnitus, Kloßgefühl oder der "Fersensporn" haben fasziale Ursachen. Das Fasziale Organ ist das Organ der Körperdedektion, welches Bewegung und damit auch Verhalten in enger Abstimmung mit dem ZNS erst ermöglicht.Muskeln und das Netzwerk der Faszien bilden zusammen das im gesamten Körper präsente myofasziale System. Wenn Sie auch dieses System bei der Differentialdiagnose mit berücksichtigen, können Sie Ihren Patienten z.T. invasive, belastende Diagnostik ersparen und eine treffergenaue erfolgreiche Therapie bieten.Ursachen für faszial bedingte Schmerzen und Funktionsstörungen verstehen: fasziale Knoten, Faszienketten, Triggerpunkte, Wechselwirkung zwischen Schmerzursache und SchmerzlokalisationFasziale Gelosen und BlockadenKlinik, BeschwerdebilderFasziale Syndrome und Schmerzmuster zutreffend erkennenKausale und dauerhaft wirksame BehandlungsansätzeTherapie des faszialen SystemsZusammenarbeit Arzt - PhysiotherapeutDie Autoren – ein Allgemeinmediziner und eine Physiotherapeutin – ergänzen sich in ihrem Wissen und Können perfekt.
