Content
The role played by the venolymphatic system, in osteopathy and elsewhere, is a central one. Venolymphatic Drainage Therapy: an Osteopathic and Manual Therapy Approach offers accessible and clinically relevant coverage of the subject - encompassing the thorax, abdomen, pelvis and limbs - which includes principles of examination and the effective treatment of underlying disorders. Prepared in an easy-to-follow, practical format, the first part of the volume explores the anatomy, physiology, embryology and biomechanics of the venolymphatic system. The volume then presents a variety of effective treatment options which range from the treatment of functional disorders of the diaphragm, the intraosseous fluid system, the spleen, liver and gallbladder, kidneys and ureters, to the management of problems connected with the abdominal mesenteries and abdominal organs. Richly illustrated with an abundance of artworks and photographs throughout, this volume will be ideal for osteopaths, chiropractors, physical therapists, physiotherapists and massage therapists worldwide.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages
