Product Details

Product Description

Book Description

In this second volume, Jean-Pierre Barral further develops the concepts and techniques first described in his pioneering work Visceral Manipulation.

The introductory chapter focuses on lesional chains and reflexogenic zones. There is an in-depth discussion of such diagnostic methods as general and local listening, inhibition points, and the completed form of the Adson-Wright and Laségue tests.

The treatment section introduces recoil and general induction, and discusses treatment strategy and some special problems associated with manipulation in children. The autonomic plexuses of the trunk and their place in visceral manipulation are also described.

Other chapters discuss such structures as the peritoneum, spleen and pancreas which were not covered in the first volume. There is also an expanded discussion of the gastroesophageal junction, stomach and duodenum, liver, gallbladder and bile ducts, jejunoileum and colon, and kidneys.

Extensively illustrated and fully indexed, Visceral Manipulation II is an important book for all practitioners who wish to improve their skills in visceral manipulation.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Compliment to the first, July 12 2000
This review is from: Visceral Manipulation II (Hardcover)
Visceral Manipulation II is a wonderful compliment to the first book. Barrel takes the time to further elaborate on specifics which he quickly went over in the first book. More attention is given to detail and to treatment.
