Movement Integration : The Systemic Approach To Human Movement (EPUB)

Movement Integration : The Systemic Approach To Human Movement (EPUB)

By Linus Johansson and Martin Lundgren

a holistic, paradigm-shifting method of comprehending bodily activity. Our capacity to move quickly and efficiently has been crucial to our evolution and continued existence as a species. It has made it possible for us to locate food, repel danger, combat threats, and thrive both separately and as a group.

The vast network of bones, muscles, tissues and organs that makes up our body functions incredibly intricately. The contributors to Movement Integration take a more systemic, integrative approach to understanding these systems, whereas traditional anatomy has focused on a reductionist framework for understanding these mechanisms in isolation. A novel paradigm for understanding movement from the viewpoint of the entire body is ensomatosy.

Numerous bodily processes are thought to be both internally and outwardly coordinated. Drawing on knowledge from fields such as sports science, physiotherapy, myofascial treatment, Pilates, yoga, Rolfing, and craniosacral therapy, the authors contend that regaining the body’s innate capacity for painless, fluid movement requires a more thorough understanding of movement. The Color Illustration Model of Relative Movement, with more than 150 illustrations, offers a visual aid for comprehending how joints interact with surrounding structures (rather than in isolation). Physiotherapists, massage therapists, structural integrators, coaches and instructors of yoga and Pilates will find this book to be very helpful.
