Myers, Thomas W

Anatomy trains : myofascial meridians for manual therapists and movement professionals - 4th ed. - London : Elsevier, 2020 - xiii, 364p.

Anatomy Trains is designed to interest all professionals engaged in human structure and movement: physical therapists, athletic and personal trainers, rehab specialists, osteopaths, chiropractors, manual therapists, yoga and Pilates teachers, massage therapists, dance and movement teachers, bodyworkers and acupuncturists. This book clearly describes functionally-integrated body-wide continuities within the fascial webbing forming traceable 'meridians' of myofascia. In the human frame, with a high centre of gravity and small bases of support, stability, strain, tension, fixation, resilience and postural compensation are all distributed via these lines. Based on the meridian map, this edition presents many new and holistic strategies for manual and movement therapists to restore and enhance posture and movement function.
