Dans cet ouvrage, destiné aux praticiens soucieux d’optimiser la santé de leurs patients seniors, les auteurs proposent une approche logique basée sur l’anatomie et la physiologie, débouchant sur le traitement de ces patients selon les principes ostéopathiques. Avec plus de 70 ans d’expérience clinique à eux deux, les auteurs exposent ainsi les modalités pratiques du diagnostic et du traitement de la dysfonction somatique présente dans de nombreux troubles : dysfonctions musculosquelettiques, posturales, cardiovasculaires, respiratoires, gastro-intestinales, urogénitales, autonomiques, auditives et visuelles.
Ils proposent aussi des instructions pour favoriser la participation du patient, sa capacité à se prendre en charge, ce qui participe au processus d’autoguérison, principe fondamental en médecine ostéopathique.
Agrémenté de quelque 250 illustrations et photographies, ce livre sera pour l’ostéopathe un outil agréable à consulter et indispensable à sa pratique.
