Biomechanics for Instructors
This book comprises a series of lectures given by celebrated Soviet neurophysiologist Nikolai Alexandrovich Bernstein in Moscow in 1925 and first published in Russian in 1926. Bernstein's groundbreaking work, which has had a significant influence on the development of neuroscience, movement studies, and other fields of study in Russia, Eastern Europe, and the West, was suppressed during Stalin's regime. At the time of its publication, Biomechanics for Instructors was a significant resource for teachers, with its descriptions of the movement of joints and degrees of freedom, illustrations of how to calculate the work capacity of muscles with bones acting as levers, the role of the central nervous system in movement, and more. Though the terminologies and methods have changed and been updated as research and technologies have progressed, the book remains a valuable introduction for those interested in Bernstein's work more generally, and to those involved in the study of biomechanics. This book is also of interest to historians and philosophers of neuroscience, as well as those involved in movement studies in both the scientific and artistic domains, and to physiotherapists and those involved in sports research and practice.

Hirata Zone Therapy with the Ontake Method
Hirata was a medical student by day-and a rebel by night. Critical of Western medicine, he pioneered a holographic system of dermatome stimulation using a heated probe-designed to trigger the body's self-healing mechanisms and empower laypeople to treat themselves. Hirata's first book in 1933 was a runaway bestseller. In the West, however, the tools used in Japan to heat the skin were not available, and his system is not well known. Now, nearly one hundred years later-Hirata Zone Therapy has found new life with the integration of Ontake Warm Bamboo, a simple-to-apply moxibustion tool. Oran Kivity's first book was Moxa in Motion with the Ontake Method. For this second book on rhythmic moxibustion, he has researched the Hirata Zones extensively, decoding the approaches not only of Hirata, but his more famous exponent, Dr Manaka. Simply written and clearly illustrated, this is the first systematic exploration in English of these ideas, repurposing them for contemporary practice. In this book, you will learn: - How to load, light, and apply bamboo safely- The twelve Hirata zones and their mappings- The integration of Dr Manaka's meridian frequencies - Basic, intermediate, and complex strategies for treating over 200 diseases- Strategies for home treatment Hirata Zone Therapy will significantly expand your reach as a practitioner, adding new understanding and extra momentum to your treatments, whatever your style of practice. Oran Kivity is a veteran acupuncturist and international trainer from the UK. He has dedicated countless hours of clinical observation and study to integrate the knowledge of contemporary Japanese masters. Through writing and teaching, he has ignited interest in Ontake, a remarkable moxa tool from Japan, researching and developing these dynamic techniques and compiling them into this practical handbook of clinical moxibustion.

Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a spiritual science, with tremendous possibilities of achieving holistic health, without using medicines. Use of hypnosis in treatment is known for millennia and had become popular in the 19th century. But, with the advent of psychoanalysis and advanced medical facilities, it declined in popularity, to be revived in the second half of last century. Modern hypnotherapy is a rather young branch of healing discipline. It is not properly understood and not utilized to its full extent, mainly due to the misconceptions and lack of awareness. In 'Hypnotherapy: Healing through the Mind' Dr. Uma Devi has tried to present hypnosis and its therapeutic uses and benefits in a simple manner. The principles and procedures of hypnotherapy and its applications are described, with actual case studies from the author's experience. Its easily understandable language and lucid presentation are sure to make the book appealing to the readers. This book fills a lacuna in the published literature on clinical hypnotherapy, where the different aspects of hypnotherapy and its varied applications are presented under a single title. Topics covered include power of subconscious mind, steps in hypnotherapy session, emotional basis of physical diseases, visualisation and guided imagery, self hypnosis and regression therapy. Applications including case studies in clinical, non-clinical and childrens issues are described.

The Healing Power of Pets
From Dr. Marty Becker, co-author of the bestsellers Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul and Chicken Soup for the Cat and Dog Lover's Soul comes a ground-breaking new book that reveals the stirring stories and medical miracles behind the healing power of pets. Pets and people have been living together for thousands of years, but as pets have moved indoors, there have been extraordinary changes in the relationship. In the last twenty years, medical research has increasingly proven the healing effect pets can have for the ill, the elderly, the stressed-out, and the emotionally disengaged. Research shows that people with pet companions have fewer doctor visits and recover more quickly from severe illnesses. In The Healing Power of Pets, Dr. Marty Becker, resident vet on ABC-TV's Good Morning America, shows readers how pets can prevent, detect, treat, and in some cases cure a variety of maladies, from arthritis to asthma, and from Alzheimer's to depression. Pets decrease cardiovascular risk factors, motivate their sedentary owners to exercise, and help people deal with chronic pain. In addition, the book offers heart-warming true stories of pets who have enriched--even saved--their owner's lives to reveal the lasting physical, emotional, and social benefits of the human-animal bond.

Gua Sha
Do you know that this ancient Chinese curing technique provides a unique method of better health and also dealing with issues like chronic pain.Gua-sha is a part of traditional Chinese medication (TCM); it can also be known as "scraping," "spooning," or "coining." Its professionally use as an instrument to scrape people's pores and skin, it is said to have a therapeutic advantage. The procedure of this particular medication has a French name called tribo-effleurage. Gua-sha is an all-natural option therapy that involves scraping your skin layer with a therapeutic massage tool to boost your blood circulation. Gua-sha is usually performed on the back, buttocks, neck, hands, and legs; a mild version from it is even applied to the facial skin as a cosmetic technique. Your specialist may apply moderate pressure, and steadily increase strength to regulate how much pressure you are designed for.In gua-sha, a technician scrapes your skin layer with brief or long strokes to stimulate microcirculation of the smooth cells, which increases blood circulation; they make these strokes with a smooth-edged device known as a Gua-therapeutic massage tool, the specialist applies massage essential oil to your skin layer, and then uses the tool to scrape your skin layer in a downward movement frequently. Gua-sha is supposed to handle stagnant energy, called chi; professionals believe that this "chi" is responsible for swellings in any part of the body; swelling is the reason behind several conditions associated with chronic pain. Massaging the skin's surface is considered to help split up this energy, reduce irritation, and promote recovery.
